    today is 6 months since my homebirth - was just having a look at photos today with DH as he *finally* processed some! Had a bit of a cry that it's all over...also say down and wrote a letter to our MW to thank her for everything she did for me. She taught me to trust myself...I can't thank her enough for that gift, especially at the beginning of motherhood. I can't wait to do it all again

    Thinking of you Em and Chocorama!

    Quiet thread lately.... Calm before the "storm"?

    Things are gong fairly well over here. Anna has been the easiest baby for us. She's so quiet and content, sleeps well, nurses well - it's wonderful! I've had a few other issues going on that have added a bit of a challenge - the post-partum hemerrhoids decided to made an appearance and they are PAINFUL! But I've got some good medication from the midwives for them, which has helped in the past, so hopefully that will soon be resolved.
    Fifth Disease (parvovirus, or slap cheek) has been going around, and I think I got it from my kids. It's no concern for me or Anna, but one of the symptoms in adults is arthritis-like pain in your joints. Right now, my wrists, fingers, hips, and ankles are pretty painful! It's hard to open and close bottles, pick up my kids and baby, open the clasp on my nursing bra, etc. It's supposed to last 3-4 days, so I hope it will end soon!

    Anyways, hope things are well with everyone else!

    Eutra - what a lovely idea for your midwife. I'll bet that letter will make her day.

    I just got the paperwork in the mail with the appointment at my back up hospital (not my hospy of choice, but I'm stuck with the new 30min rule).. There was a consent form enclosed.. Bahahahah... Please bring the completed form to your appointment.
    So Umm they want me to sign a form that says 'my condition and prognosis have been explained/the risks have been explained/outcomes cannot be guaranteed ect ect' now? I think NOT!
