Introducing...

Family
Please welcome Matilda Anais (supposed to have 2 dots on the i, but PreZ's laptop won't let me do it the way I know how).

Born March 25th at home in the pool at 3.54pm as a surprise breech birth! She decided that coming head first was too mundane, and so she came butt first instead, to everybody's surprise.

8lbs 1/2oz and 19.5 inches tall.

Other than her surprise presentation (being that she's been head down for weeks, even for an internal exam), labour was pretty fast once I got past yesterday's pro-dromal and early labour. Pushing itself was a 10-15 minute affair which occurred much sooner than I had anticipated.

Anyway, needless to say we are thrilled, and also tired and sore.

Thanks to all who wished me well in the earlier stages! :)

Oh, I meant to add, if you're posting in LJ comms or places that parse HTML entities like LJ, you can create the ä in Anaäis by typing ampersandauml; where "ampersand" is replaced by the actual & character. Don't forget the semicolon. :)

(And spell it all right. D'oh, uml is short for umlaut, not ulm.)

Congratulations to Marieke, PreZ, and Dash. Being a big brother is a big responsibility!

Congrats and welcome Matilda ^,^

I've been watching lj like a hawk because Andy's computer will not connect to darker.net randomly, no reason to be found. I'm just intensely glad everyone is safe and happy.
