"Motherhood is a love story with no ending, a meditation on light that transforms everything it touches." - Stephanie Sprenger
MATERNITY info
Astrid was born at 2:40 am.
She had the umbilical cord twisted twice around her neck, the midwives were ready to give her oxygen but there was no need: as soon as they took it off Astrid took a deep breath and let out her first cry, claiming her own life, with general goosebumps and emotion.
Finally mom and daughter can rest skin to skin and see each other for the first time face to face face.
The baby stays on Luna's chest for a while, looking for her breast and learning how to suck.
Astrid is examined, cleaned and gently measured by the midwives.
Childbirth in Mangiagalli clinic, Milan.
