Wow Tarkine. What a birth story. I so understand your fear. I was freaking out over a laproscopy for which I'd be totally out to it.

I'm glad L looked after you so well and you got that skin to skin contact.

Congrats again Tarkine! Great story, thanks for sharing. That's a really good attitude - doesn't matter how they arrive, as long as they are safe.

Well done Tarkine! You did a great job, how wonderful to get all that skin-to-skin contact. I bet wee Alex is just perfect....and yes it totally is worth it all!
