Beautiful, sleepy, new Carter… thank you for coming to the studio!
In her words:
“I knew right from the beginning that Carter was going to be a special little man. His conception was not planned, but right from the start we welcomed whoever decided to enter our world in 9 months.
As the months passed, Carter developed perfectly and on April 22, he decided that it was time. He was scheduled to arrive on the 24th via cesarean, but in true Pina fashion, he couldn’t wait. Contractions started early that morning and by one o’clock they were in full force. By the time we got to the hospital the contractions were about a minute and a half apart and I was prepped for a c-section. Forty-five minutes later, as we waited for the anesthesiologist, he was born VBAC.
Carter entered the world at 5:00pm without a tear in his little eyes. He was such a peanut weighing in at 5 lbs. 10 oz. and only 18 inches long. Looking down at him for the first time brought tears to my eyes. He was so sweet snuggling up against me for his first hour of life staring at me with those alert little eyes saying “Here I am mommy!””
