Cordelia Jane is earthside!- Updated with link to birth story and slideshow

[birthdancedoula]

My sweet baby girl, Cordelia Jane, made her way into the world this at 7:57am this morning.  She was our 6th birth at home but my first waterbirth experience and it was absolutely amazing!  She weighed 8lb 8oz (after a huge mec diaper) and was 19.5 inches long.  My birth team was incredible and Cordelia's birth was attended by every one of her 5 siblings. 

I am super sore and the afterbirth pains are kicking my butt but I will try to get Delia's birth story up in the next day or so.  For now though, here is a link my FB album.

Thanks for thinking of me yesterday, mamas!
