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! :)

Much love to the whole family.
(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!

and a happy welcome to 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.
Congrats. :)
Much, much, much (and heaps) of congrats to the new happy family of four!
I'm so excited!
Congratulations!!!
I came out ass backwards too. Clearly it's a sign of greatness.

I hope that you 2 are doing well, and that the baby is happy and healthy!
Lots of love to you both! :)
