This for Christina. This was taken of me holding baby Liam when he was about 12 hours old.

Have I mentioned what a wonderful experience having him at home was? It was tremendous. He was born in a birthing tub, and it was so peaceful - he arrived to Bach's Unaccompanied Cello Suites. Hard labor lasted less than 2 hours, and the stress on my body seems to have been much less, even though I birthed a baby 1.5 lbs heavier than Tommy. In fact, I didn't ever feel like I needed drugs or anything. Of course the contractions weren't fun and games, but they definitely did not hurt - just required a lot of concentration.
