thanks so much for all the well wishes! coming back here to find a whole thread anticipating my daughter's birth was amazing.

i had a 27 hour labor this time, something i wasnt expecting at all after my first son's 9 hour birth. my daughter kassiopeia was born at 8:19 pm on the 18th of june. 7 pounds, 10 ounces, perfect as can be. we are exceedingly pleased that we gave birth at home.

our home is filled with happiness, i cannot describe the joy of having 2 perfect babes. watching my oldest with kassi is a dream come true... it is so worthwhile, all the work of being pregnant and giving birth all over again.

i was worried nothing would fit, that it would be *too small*. everything is too big! :LOL kassi wears mama made fitteds and preemie prefolds- i strongly suggest a dozen preemie cpfs if you are building a newborn stash, they fit so well and are cuteness incarnate.

kassi has had 6 pees and 5 poos. isnt it wild that i know how many. that will change soon enough!
my milk is coming in today.

that is my weblog. there are some pics there, including one of kassi's face and one of her in her first diaper!

thanks again for the kind thoughts. i needed them, the labor was long and really very challenging. but i wouldnt change a thing. ah, babyheaven!

Congratulations Tabitha! They are both beautiful. I love the photo where your older one is reaching over to the baby. My ds was totally in love with his sister from the moment she arrived too, waking to check on her etc. Enjoy, enjoy. It's a marvellous transition from one to two. Kind of weird, but wonderful.
