My Christmas baby came a few days early

Baby Sophia’s due date was Christmas <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android.eve">Eve</a>, but she decided that she didn’t want to turn. She was breech, and I did everything I could to try and change that. The Miles Circuit, yoga, even got in a heated pool to do some handstands at 38 weeks! Everything up to that point was normal, I had a very easy going pregnancy, no pre E, no swelling, very minimal heartburn.. baby girl took it easy on me, except she wouldn’t turn! So I was scheduled for a C section at 39 weeks on Dec 20th. Being a bigger girl with an apron belly, I was very nervous about the c section but everything from the surgery to healing has been very easy going for me and I’m incredibly fortunate and blessed for that.

My little Sophia came into this world at 12:30 pm on Dec 20th, and I got to see her beautiful face within minutes of her arrival. I’m so happy to have her here finally and get to see her beautiful face every day. It’s already been almost 3 weeks since her arrival and I’m just still in awe at how perfect she is. Our bodies are amazing, growing such beautiful little humans.
