Rach, today is the big day. Aiden will be here within the next half hour. Forever in your life and in your arms. I can't wait to see his beautiful first pictures and hear how all went. You truly have been such a help and inspiration to so many on here and now your time has come, today your dreams become reality. Best wishes to you!

Congratulations, Rachel! I figure you'll get around to reading this post at some point! Were you at Northside? I'm leaning toward Piedmont, myself, but it's really close to my house.

You've given us all a ton of support and guidance about pregnancy. Now you can give us support and guidance on motherhood! Way to blaze a trail!

Kathryn.
