South Florida Babies

Baby William is here!

Short story:

William was born on 4.22.11 at 11:19 pm weighing 7 lbs 14 oz and 21 inches long. We planned to birth at home, possibly a water birth. But I decided not to have Christopher inflate the pool so we were upstairs in our bedroom.  It was amazing!

If William had waited another 41 minutes he would have been born on his due date. But I?ll take my Good Friday and Earth Day baby! We?re all healthy and happy and very thankful that everything went smoothly for our home birth.

Thanks for all the T&P!


Long story with some pics:

  • Congratulations! What an amazing birth story.  He'sgorgeous!
  • Congrats Tracy! Williams birth story was amazing!
  • Congratulations Tracy!!!!! You had the same Midwives as my client Daisy whose maternity and newborn shots I just did. In fact she gave her daughter's middle name Anjali after the midwife. So cool-what a coincidence. I had the pleasure of meeting Corina at my client's baby shower and she was so nice!

    I loved reading the birth story! So incredible for William to be born at home. He is beautiful!
