Born on Wednesday, October 24, 2008 at 4:40am, Abigail MacKenna Thue weighed in at 8lbs, 8oz and was 22" long. We got to the hospital around 7pm the evening before after Kelly's water broke, and other than a long period of pushing, things went pretty smoothly. About ten hours once labor had really started. Our doula, Candi (www.birthgoddess.com), was a huge help and comfort throughout pregnancy and the whole labor experience. Thanks, Candi, for all your reassurance and expertise!
