Written by Violet’s mother:

Violet Aveline McNamara was born on July 30th, 2009 at 11:09 pm.  She was 7 lbs 7 oz and 20 inches long.  It was an amazing birth.  Kevin and I are very grateful for Dr. Martin and the nurses at Trident.  Both labor and the actual birth were completely different experiences than my first child, Duncan.  Dr. Martin was instrumental in making the hospital environment relaxed and did everything he could to make the experience one that I had been working toward for months.  His expertise, kindness, and patience combined with the Hypnobabies (www.hypnobabies.com) program that I studied in preparation for birth provided an almost painless experience without an epidural or pain medication.  Again, Violet, Kevin and I cannot thank Dr. Martin enough for our experience!
