My pathway to motherhood has been a long and at times difficult journey. But through it al, i have taken every step girded by faith and prayer, as well as the
loving support from so many of you – both near and far.

And now that I am finally a mother, my heart feels like a truly foreign organ in my body.it is so full.completely
transformed by this brand new wondrous being.

My daughter, Naimah Yasmine Kadi Sesay was born on
February 17th at 9.24pm in NYC. Her arrival was
preceded by the sudden onset of preeclampsia which unleashed skyrocketing blood pressure and in the hours
that followed hemorrhaging, toxemia and fluid overload
In the darkest moments all I could think about was my daughter and she provided the strength that I needed
There are no words to capture my gratitude for the round the clock medical care led by my outstanding OB/GYN Dr
Clarel Antoine and supported by so many others at @nyulangone and just as critically the mind-body-spirit care provided by my doula @mslemonhoney who was by
my side in the delivery room and throughout everything that followed.

“Thank you” seems inadequate for all the
people who literally saved my life!
Those difficult days are behind us and Naimah and I are
thankfully back home. In the blink of an eye, my child has removed all traces of who I once was and what considered to be important. In keeping with the meaning
of her first name, “Naimah,” she is indeed my peace.

She is my blessing.
Thank you to all of you who have followed my pregnancy
journey, checked on us, prayed for us, and sent constant
well wishes. We love you!
And I can’t wait to share the triumphs and travails of motherhood in the days ahead.
