Oh wow, that poor woman and to think that there are literally 1000s of others like her struggling with nowhere to turn for love and support...mostly because of the myth of a healthy baby being the only important aspect of birth.

We have a midwives picnic coming up too! I totally forgot...it must in the next few weeks. eep! i better double-check!

Got the girls to do some really lovely paintings today of their little sister in the womb I have them up in the birth room and it looks so so lovely! i just havent had a chance to organise a baby shower/blessingway, so this was an important part of trying to 'welcome' our little baby.
