She is here! Catherine Claire arrived on November 4th (her due date!) at 9:35 AM. It was a 7 hour labor and completely drug free (I'm proud of myself!). We are all doing great and trying to get used to our "new" normal!
I'll post some pictures when we get our memory card back (it's a long story!)

I'm so happy for you. Welcome to the world Catherine! And congrats on no drugs. I did the same with both of my boys and never regretted it. Can't wait to see pictures. Now go get plenty of rest.

So happy for you! I'm glad she didn't make you wait too long. Our impatient girl has been a joy in the month since we've had her.. I admit I'm glad we got to enjoy her on the outside of my body for the last four weeks. I imagine being even more pregnant than I was would have been miserable.
I admire your lack of drugs. Maybe if I'd started with contractions coming more than two minutes apart, I would have been able to tolerate it. As it was, I could barely make it as long as I did without them! I recall asking to be hit over the head more than once.
