Beautiful and angelic Ruby Jo was born on the Spring Equinox (3/20/08) at 2:26 pm via scheduled C-section due to footling breech presentation and low amniotic fluid. She was 7 pd. 2 oz., 19 inches, and absolutely perfect! The staff involved were all wonderful and granted all my wishes on my birth plan...hands free, music, aromatherapy, no ointment, hep-B shot, or vit. K. I love babywearing and enjoy the closeness/bonding it creates with my baby! Sorry my post is so overdue....it's been an exciting and busy last couple of weeks!

Ah, welcome little breech babe!

Congratulations on your successful birth. My niece was breech 12 years ago, and still loves to hear her birth story about how stubborn and comfortable she was! Enjoy!
