    Congrats on a little woman Cassius!! I've got a feeling there's another pink bundle growing inside me as well.

    Where abouts are you located?

    Wherever it is, it sounds shocking!! It reminds me of some of the footage i saw on the Guerilla Midwife film about the Maternity system in Indonesia.

    If women can't afford to pay their hospital bills, they aren't allowed to take their babies home. The babies are left in the nursery without any care and the mums are only allowed in twice a day to care for and feed the babies. The women are camping outside the hospital waiting for the allotted times. Totally devastating stuff.

    Congrats on the new little girl on the way Cassius! We love girls at our house too - the more the merrier. I've also got 4 sisters. People say strange things though - when DD5 was born, one of the neighbours came over to congratulate us, and said "Oh, another girl. That's too bad. I was hoping you'd have a boy..." Ummm... thanks. Go home now, OK?
