Just wanted to update everyone that Vivien Anrai ("Anrai" is gaelic for "Henry" and pronounced "on-REE") arrived safe and sound via c-section this morning. She's figuring out nursing and I'm beyond exhausted but we're elated, so very very happy and relieved. She's tiny at just 19" and 7lbs 11oz, and we adore every little bit of her. thank you all so much for your prayers and support!

So happy to hear she's safely here. And I love the name. Hope she figures out nursing soon and your recovery goes smoothly.

Thank you so much mamas, we are still at the hospital, hoping to leave tomorrow and get home. It's still so surreal, but wonderful. I feel like Henry was with me as she was born in the OR, had an intense bout of sobbing after they pulled her out, but it felt like a good thing, like a release. Thank you all for the well wishes. My love to each of you...

Mindy, well done girl, you made it.. Vivien made it.. just fantastic, fantastic news.

Remembering Henry as you forge your new existence as a changed family.. and I wish you first and foremost, rest and peace.. after that, years ahead packed with sweet moments of wonder and joy!

Love to you and yours on this beautiful day. xxx
