Congrats to you and your beautiful fam! And Thanks for the hospital birth story. They aren't all nightmares (depends on the hospital of course). Natural childbirth is not for everyone (and in NYC there really are no "safe" hospitals for mothers who want to give birth naturally or without coercion). Here we have to give birth at home (there are also no birthing centers as they were all closed down) so I wanted to share this documentary I directed that honors the mothers and midwives who have! https://watchlocal.hudsy.tv/programs/birth-from-the-earth

Oh my goodness, congratulations Zuby! He's GORGEOUS. I'm glad mum seems to be doing well? Birth is serious business! Her path through labour sounds quite similar to my first - water broke, took no risks, induction, epi... and then section, in my case.

I am so happy for you and excited to see how this may inspire or influence your work.

Best of wishes from Siobhan, who you interviewed once re: veganism but the sound went funny so it never got posted. Rooting for you through the challenges and sleeplessness to come!

Congratulations! Isn't it amazing that one minute the baby is coming--and the next minute there's a living, breathing baby in your arms? And how soon it is that you can't imagine a time when that new little persons wasnt' here?

I am so happy for you all! What a beautiful family and a LUCKY child. He has 2 smart, wise loving parents and that is the best life a child could ask for. That is worth more than winning the lottery.

And to quote a few lines from Kenny Loggins (Dannys song) : “Strong and Kind, And the little boy is mine. Now i see a family where there once was none”

Congratulations Zuby and Gina! Your son couldn't have asked for better parents. That little boy will have everything he needs to succeed in life, a loving mother and father and a home that welcomes the Lord.

I hope Gina is recovering well. Pregnancy does a number on the body, but it's temporary and comes with the best prize.
