Lucia

Lucia Orlando Littell, born October 15, 6:38pm, 6 oz. exactly, 19 inches long. A beautiful, beautiful baby girl. There are no words.

My birth story is not at all what I had imagined it would be, and I am still working through it, processing, healing. All I can say is that the phrase "birth plan" may be the most ridiculous phrase in the English language. Details soon.

Congratulations Margo! She just so beautiful! She's perfect. Seeing her perfect little face makes me think about babies again.

I had a natural birth plan like you and ended up with a nightmarish emergency c-section, but all's well that ends well, I guess.

ohmygoodness she IS a beautiful baby! and you know, that's really not always true with newborns! and a beatiful name too. SO MANY CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

and HUGS about the birth. we, too, decided that our next birth plan would read, simply, "have a baby". and i send you LOADS of hugs that things were not at all like you planned. but CONGRATULATIONS again on the perfect beautiful angel you got in the end "anyway".

*HUGS*
