This was an absoluetly beautiful chapter.  All of the love radiating off of Edward for Bella and Abbey was so easily felt when I was reading.  He is so proud and so happy.  They are a true family. 

I actually did get emotional when reading about Esme and Rose holding the baby.  Just remembering all they had been through made me fight some tears.  Especially Rose because she really knows how lucky Bella is to be able to give a special gift like that to not only Edward but the whole family.

Of course Charlie was a man of few words, but the swan was an perfect gift and said so much that his words couldn't.

Edward not knowing about the fairy wings was sweet and cute moment.  It showed how much Edward didn't know and showed how much Bella could help him understand things.

I can't wait for the next chapter.  Had her change been planned after the baby was born?  I couldn't imagine she would have wanted to be changed before Abbey was no longer nursing so I imagine something will be happening soon that will require her be changed. 

Great chapter!!!

This is probably the most moving, perfect Twilight fic I've ever read. Thank you so much for continuing it.

GOD! I LOVE this fic! I cry and cry like a baby! And I'm 8 months pregnant with a baby girl so it kinda hits home! I love u for writing this! UPDATE SOON!!! PLEASE!

This chapter is SO sweet. I like that you went with a different name as well. Elizabeth is one of the names I have chosen for my first daughter, it'll be her middle name in memory of my Aunt. I think you did a lovely job with this. =)

I loved this chapter.  You put so much emotion into it. It really is beautiful.  I also love the name!  God I hate Rennesme....what was SM thinking?  Geez, how cheezy.

Anyway, you did it better!

I love the name Abbey! I'm glad you didn't go with Renesmee. I enjoyed this chapter. I look forward to reading more. 

No, not too mushy at all.  In fact, I thought it was perfect.  It was sweet and gentle and lovely, just like it should have been.

You have done another fine job with this chapter, and no it was not too mushy it was perfect. You captured the mood and the feeling of both of them wondrefully, It has excellent flow and how the family reacts is great,it fits the mood of the story and I just think that this story is by far the best of this site, LOVE IT so much.Looking forward for more.

This chapter was absolutely beautiful! Hearing the joy and total love from Edward was about to bring me to tears. I would have loved to see a bit of this chapter from Edward's perspective, but it was sweet none the less.

Sooo looking forward to the next chapter!!!!

Author's Response:

Thanks very much!  Yeah, Edward was a bit emotional.  I don't do well at writing alternating points of view, but you could get an idea of his side of things in his little speech at the end.  When the story's finished I'll be doing an epilogue from Edward's point of view and he'll talk about the birth and the delivery then.  I'm really glad you liked the chapter, thanks for letting me know.

 

This was a lovely chapter and I love the new name.

Beautifully written. Great job, I can't wait for more.

honestly, i like the name abbey elizabeth far more than renesmee carlie anyday.  another chapter, another awesome!!

AWESOME!

Was it schmaltzey and emotional and oohey-gooey?  Yeah, but I loved it!  The mood and emotions, espcially for Edward, fit the situation.  I love that you're completely going off on your own - the labor and birth, the baby's name, the baby's characteristics...so fantastic! 

Your Edward is one of my absolute favorites!  He's so loyal and loving and just PERFECT!  I love him! 

I can't wait to read about Bella's change and how you work that out!  :-)

awww this chapter was PERFECT!!! you had me crying at the end lol :)

i really like abbey too..great job!!! i am so in love with this story!!!
