    you've done absolutely brilliantly, Jo_R!

    So glad you got the active birth you wanted. In your original post you were talking about "possibilities" rather than certainties and it was obvious you'd make the best decision based on all the facts on the day.

    All your determination, strength, and openness are qualities that you'll be using often, as Little_R grows up.

    I bet she's gorgeous!

    Big hugs to all the family :T
