“She took her time,” Jenna said.
There were a few complications prior to her arrival.The baby’s heart rate drastically dropped, and doctors thought an emergency C-section might be necessary. But Paisley recovered quickly and successfully came into the world, just in time to celebrate the new year.
She weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces and was 20.5 inches long.
“She’s off to a good start,” Jenna said.
Paisley was one of three babies born on Jan. 1 at Saint Joseph London. The second baby of the new year arrived more than an hour later, at 6: 14 a.m.
