Max Baby has Arrived!

Our baby boy Max was finally born two nights ago. We are so in love with him! It was definitely a long, long journey, that could definitely go straight into the 'when labor needs help' file. The teaching to not be attached to our birth plan was invaluable for us. An imminent induction for being overdue and having a big baby led to me trying castor oil, then water breakage, then a cascade of interventions, of which none worked to avoid, 60 hrs later, a C-section, which ultimately delivered a healthy and wonderful baby! We are physically still at Sutter, but emotionally in baby bliss! Here are some pictures...







We look forward to seeing you all at the reunion, and meeting your babies!
