Good morning ladies! Just heard from Lila's (5THOF11) hubby and she is busy HOLDING THE BIRTHMOTHER'S HAND who is dilated to a 10 and having their baby! I am soooo excited for her!

I was really worried they wouldn't get there in time because it's a 4 hour drive from where they live. I know she and the birthmother had talked about this moment and C (the birthmother) really wanted Lila and Michael to be there, to hold the baby immediately and start bonding with him. I was going to be sad for her if she missed that regardless if she had him to hold the rest of her LIFE. So I'm soooooo glad she made it in time!

I just can't wait for her to be a mother!

Posted last night:
LILA JUST TEXTED ME THAT THE BIRTHMOTHER'S CONTRACTIONS ARE 5-6 MINUTES APART AND THEY'RE CALLING THE DR. THEY'RE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL AND WILL LET LILA KNOW MORE INFO WITHIN THE HOUR!

PRAY FOR HER THAT EVERYTHING GOES WELL! LILA WON'T BE HEADING TO THE HOSPITAL TILL THEY HEAR BACK FROM THE DR/HOSPITAL.!!!! I'M NOT SURE HOW LONG THAT DRIVE IS FOR HER....

I'm sooooooo excited and anxious for her!!!! This is just such a long time coming! I just hope everything goes smoothly! I know she's sooooo excited and nervous!

Newbies: Lila is my sister who has struggled with infertility for over 10 years. She's been trying to adopt for 2 years, and recently went through a disappointment, but everything with this baby and birthmother is looking REALLY good!
