No amount of words could ever describe the happiness I feel with her in my arms. She didn’t arrive as I had wanted and planned, a natural birth without medication was just not in the cards for us… as much as I mentally and physically prepared for it….
So unplanned C-section it was. After all the hours of labor, I would do it all again (Even though those Pitocin contractions are no damn joke) And everyone was right. The moment I saw her, everything changed. What mattered in my life changed. This feeling is different, in a good way and I am so excited for this new chapter. Amaia Rae Benitez, I love you, my little one, beyond words could explain. Here’s to you baby!
