Gemma Lou Smith was born on September 2nd at 1:23 pm. She weighed 7 pounds, 14 ounces and was 20 inches long. She was born by c-section due to complications during labor. That’s why she has a perfectly shaped head. When she was born, her umbilical cord was tied in a knot and wrapped around her shoulder. During contractions, her heart rate would dip dangerously low so Dr. Weiner ordered the c-section. The midwife told us she hasn’t seen a birth like that in three years and that she must be meant for great things. We agree.
