Harriet Marcella Sammis

September 5, 2006: Harriet is born!



Harriet was born via C-section. This was my first time with a spinal and I hope I never have to get one again! It was however wonderful to hear her first cries.

Harriet crashed into my pelvis on my way out and cried bitterly about it for a good twenty minutes. At least she scored high on the apgar test!

Like her brother she came out hungry.

It looks like she has my brown eyes.

Sorry about the blurry photographs; the flash was bothering her eyes.

"Feed me already!" she demands.

Here she is relaxing after being washed up.

After nursing she was out for a nap.

I wanted a nap too but I didn't get one.

Here we are in the recovery room (204 B). It was not a comfortable room. It was too hot, too small and too dark with no where comfortable to sit.

At least Harriet got to room in with me this time.

I was still feeling a little weird from the spinal.

Sean and my Mom came to visit.
