I am sorry your back is hurting Robin, that's crap! But I am sooo happy you got the time to write all this out, did it feel good?

Wow, where to start!? This is quite an epic tale. I am sorry that Ruby got yanked outta you like that but man, I am glad you had your circle of women there supporting you - thank god for Lynsey. I am glad you've come to terms with choosing a home birth and still being happy with that choice, you are SO right that all they would have done was taken her away and do crap to her, so good for you having her at home. Thank god Lori had the skillz to get her out safe and sound. Doctors probs would cut you big time.

I am glad I have seen the pics of this too, they were really beautiful, Lynsey did a great job.

You made an awesomely big beautiful chubba, I love you and her!

it didn't feel good, actually. i'm glad i got out the details i could remember, i had to consult ray on a few things. but it feels so loosely put together. i'd like to tighten it up, just a little bit. then it will feel good and i can print it out and put it in her baby book :)
