I don't think I will ever read another birth story as powerful as this one

[Trillian]

I will warn you that it is very emotional. The baby has downs syndrome and they didn't know before she was born.

That was beautiful - I'm sitting her with tears streaming down my face. It was just so beautifully written and how absolutely stunning are those photos. The pediatrician sounds just beautiful - what an amazingly wonderful way to start that conversation. I'm going to have to read that again when I've stopped crying.

OMG!!!! it's nearly 1am & I should be asleep. That is so so so so incredibly beautiful - absolutely stunningly beautiful. What a special beautiful woman Nella chose to be her Mama.

Thankyou Trillian - amazing.

That is one of the most beautiful, hearbreaking and uplifting pieces of writing I have ever read! If only the love and emotion in that story could be bottled and shared among those who have none, the world would be such a better place.

I read this story a week or so before I gave birth and it was so amazing and gave me so much courage and strength to go through the experience of bringing a new life into the world.
A beautiful and strong story!
