Birth Day + 1


It's nearly 24 hours after they pulled the little squirt out and everything is still going well. She's healthy and pink and squishy. Just like babies should be. She has been quiet most of the day and chooses sleeping over eating for now.


I can imagine her experience was just as harrowing (or more) as Erica's. The day started fine, warm and comfortable. Then it got real tight and cold. Then someone started squeezing the heck out of her. Then they tried for an hour to squeeze her head through a tiny little tube. Then they pulled her out into this cold, bright, uncomfortably quiet place and started sticking things into her. Anyway, the baby is exhausted also but handling things well.


You can check out some pictures at my webshots album.


Enjoy...
