babies setting records



Stephanie, Beatrice, and Alline (in that order) gave birth to sons on Friday.  Their coordinated efforts to deliver on the same day made for an exciting time.  Add in Yveline's little girl born six minutes after she arrived early in the morning on Thursday and we set the following Heartline Maternity Center records:

  • 4 births in 36 hours  (36 hours and five minutes if you want to get technical)
  • 3 births in 12 hours
  • 2 births in one hour (Beatrice at 3:30p and Alline at 4:30p)
  • So in the first 27 days of 2012 there were 12 babies born at Heartline (8 boys and 4 girls) - We don't have good records from the days following the earthquake but we think 12 births in 27 days is also a new record
  • Thanks for all that prayed for these moms and the team delivering these babies - and most of all - Mesi Jezi !

Oh, my goodness! Exciting times! Welcome to all those sweet little faces, and praying for patient, gentle mothers with successful breastfeeding... as well as much rest for the weary! God is glorified through what you do each day!

So much cuteness in one picture. How amazing it would be if all the moms in Haiti could give birth in good health and dignity.
