My Birth

After 3 hours of active labor,
I was born into this world on August 2nd 2000.
At 8:27am.

I weighed 6 lbs 1.8 oz and measured 18.5 inches long.
By the way, did I mention I was born underwater?
It's absolutely true. At the Waltham Deaconess Hospital.
Unfortunately, WDH no longer delivers babies...

Midwife Ellen Grossman helped Pops deliver me.
Pops even did a great job of cutting the cord.
I'm very proud of both my parents!!

We decided to save my placenta and
plant an American Cranberry Tree with it.
