I am so overjoyed for my patient who gave birth yesterday to this beautiful baby boy. She has worked so hard to overcome her health challenges and to bring this child into the world, and to do so in a way that felt right for her. Life is such a gift, such a miracle, and how could she not be in love!

From the mother:

"Welcome to the world Johnathan Andrew 8lbs 1oz, 21 inches. Bladder is doing beautifully. Labor was fast and natural- first contractions at 11am and born at 4:55 pm. It was hard work, but worth this miracle;) I am so in love!"
