Your story gives me hope, thank you for sharing.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14426410846093760653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5720535154832616063.post-67700137553534716672011-04-14T07:19:12.104-07:002011-04-14T07:19:12.104-07:00Gina, your birth story is beautiful and honestly, ...Gina, your birth story is beautiful and honestly, heroic. Phoebes birth-story will forever stand out, there at Winchester Med. Center, I'm sure, and to all those who know birth isn't scary and traumatic, your story will be one to share. Your example, everything you did for your daughter will shine bright for _all_ women who wish to bring their babies into the world without unnecessary "assistance" - even women like you, who know they will only hold their baby for a short time. I can't say for sure, but I believe you may have forged new ground and Phoebe's story may help other mom's in your place, where they may feel "no choice" because of the "circumstances" have the courage to speak up for what they want. I'm loving the respect you were given, I'm loving that you caught her. And wow, to be a doula with THIS under your belt - that's something. But, to loose a child, the story is wonderful and deeply sad to me - your heart now, my care and thoughts are with you and your family.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636940968443803811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5720535154832616063.post-19545718040054518142011-04-13T19:47:03.025-07:002011-04-13T19:47:03.025-07:00gina, you are so generous to share this beautiful ...gina, you are so generous to share this beautiful story with us--thank you for sharing your joy, your power, your birth bliss. what a blessing--you deserved a happy birth, and i'm so glad you got it. :)kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11343742887335803539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5720535154832616063.post-21209736003591669902011-04-13T15:50:16.319-07:002011-04-13T15:50:16.319-07:00Thank you for being so open and sharing this with ...Thank you for being so open and sharing this with us.

Knowing she's forever in your heart and you have good memories of what is one of the toughest things a mom ever has to go through: well that's a comfort! YOU are one amazing, incredible person! My prayers will be for you both this week and if there is anything I can do, please let me know.

What a great story and what amazing little girls (yes, both you and Phoebe!) I am saddened that Phoebe is no longer on this earth with you, but know that she is proud of her mommy and will always be near. Yay for you - telling them how things would progress. You're amazing, Gina! <br /><br />StaceyStaceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00236715948080857359noreply@blogger.com
