Alexandra Maxine, born 04/06/08
I am 37 and this is my first child. I had a normal vaginal delivery exactly at 40 weeks and Sasha was born 5 hours after the water broke. She was 8 lbs 3 oz and given an Apgar score of 9. I am exclusively breastfeeding and she shows absolutely no signs of allergy to anything I eat and has a great appetite. I had no high blood pressure, no swelling and no gestational diabetes during pregnancy, gained 28 Lbs and healed incredibly fast. 3 years ago when I just started with Matia and was violently sick with IC, Matia promised me that I will get pregnant easily when I am ready and will have a healthy baby. I had a hard time believing her then. If it wasn't for Matia this baby would never be born!
