She’s here!!
Ember finally decided to join us in the big outside world! She was born at 2:52pm June 4th, after approximately 8 hours of labor. It was another pretty easy labor for me! She did surprise us all yet again though…. she weighs in at 8lb 13.1oz! Holy roly-poly. (In comparison, Kate was 7lbs.) She has a bunch of dark brown hair, big chubby cheeks, and I *think* she has Kate’s little mouth and nose, but it’s hard to say at this point, newborns being so smushy and all. Unfortunately she’s in the NICU overnight because she had some trouble breathing after birth – she was crying, but not pinking up very well. So she’s just on a bit of oxygen and hopefully will be down here with me tomorrow.
I’m working on writing out the full story… I had to keep reminding myself just to post the basics first so you all don’t have to wait a day, ha.
Congratulations! I hope she gets off her oxygen and gets to join you soon. x
Congrats, she’s adorable! So happy for all of you!

Congrats! Welcome to Miss Ember!
Congrats! What a big baby…she’ll hopefully be out of the NICU in no time…one of my twins spent 2 days there for trouble breathing after birth (she swallowed amniotic fluid)…she’s a healthy 11 month old now (as is her twin sister). Wishing you and your family all the best. Cannot wait to see pics and hear how Kate likes being a big sister!
YAY! I was so excited when Augie came to tell me that Ember was here. It’s nice having common friends who can stalk you for me!
Congratulations!
I was awake nursing my 12 month old and I thought, “I bet Natalie is nursing her 12 hour old baby!”
Congrats again!!
Congratulations! Wonderful news! Hope all is going well and she is already out of NICU.
Congratulations Nat on the arrival of your beautiful Ember!!
I’ve been checking in everyday to see when she arrived!
Our due dates were the same for Kate, and also Ember,
But my girls both surprised us 3 months early!
I hope she is out of NICU and in your arms soon!
Congrats!!!

Yayy! Congrats! Can’t wait for the story!
Congratulations!! So happy for you!
Congratulations! Welcome, Ember—I know your mommy, daddy, and big sister are over the moon that you’ve arrived.
Congratulations! Eight hours of labor – that baby couldn’t wait to come out, could she? Hope she gets out of the NICU soon and you can cuddle her.
Congratulations. Can’t wait to hear the full story and see pictures of your beautiful girl.

Congrats to everyone!! Look forward to the story and some pictures of Ember!
Congratulations on your new baby girl!!
Congraz to you and Den on another beautiful baby girl. Welcome Ember!
Super news! My second also had to go to the NICU for 12 hours for fluid in the lungs. I was nerve-wracked about breastfeeding but good news is she latched on more than 12 hours after her birth and never looked back. My milk came in in 24 hours after that, so all was well. By now, I’m sure she’s in your arms and nursing well. Congratulations, Natalie!!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations!
One more cute baby in the world!
