She has arrived. Alena was born early this morning and is healthy, happy, huggable and cute. Mother is doing fine also except for the fact that there was no anesthesia during the entire process. Contractions started at 12:30 AM. She woke me up at 1:30 AM when they had gotten to 5 minutes apart. We checked into the hospital at 2:05 and the baby came (with one push) at 2:37 AM. The doctor did make it but the anesthesiologist did not.
