My clearest memory from the day she was born is the feeling of relief that she'd finally made it into the world! She was born eight days past due date plus her heart rate was dropping during labor. Her birth almost ended in a c-section, but she finally arrived safely with no c-section.
This photo is from her first Thanksgiving weekend when she was around 7 weeks old.
Your story sounds so much like ours! Brian was 6 days late, and though I had really fast labor, they almost took me for a c-section due to his heart rate. Apparently he'd tied his cord in a knot and wrapped it around his neck once! Thankfully he was born quickly so we avoided surgery.
Brian is 7 weeks and 2 days old today, heading into his first Thanksgiving. :)
I'll never forget holding sweet Zoe and rocking out to Christian music in third service at Crosspointe. :)
Such a cutie! I'm not sure if I got to hold her at Thanksgiving or what, but I remember her crying soon after you gave her to me. This is a common occurrence for babies and me, so I wasn't totally surprised. She's gotten big though!
