New Life

I had a perfectly healthy baby girl 2 days after my due date.

Labour took 3 hours. In total. I'm convinced drinking raspberry leaf tea daily for 4 weeks had something to do with it.

J said that when Sophie emerged and opened her eyes he never saw anybody look more shocked.

First few days were crazy - I was an emotional wreck, everything made me cry. I had feeding problems that I thought would never end. I got sick. I thought I would never get through it.

I'm happy to report that 7 weeks later, things are looking much better and coping has become a lot easier.
