    That's great arimeh, seems like things are all falling into place for you

    Speaking of mw's I finally got around to calling my mw on wed arvo. It was a little awkward but it was only because I still have this nagging guilt or something. She was absolutely lovely about it and kept telling me she's sure I will have a beautiful birth anyway it won't matter where I am. I think she's right (i really hope so!) but its still kinda odd to think I will be going back to hospital when I'm not sick! I told her I might see her for #6 lol
    I have an ob appt in one week and its 'the big one'-for those that haven't had ob care its usual to have a big payment around half way through pg ontop of usual fees- anyway its a little stressful because of course I wasn't planning on having to make this payment, if I was still having hb I wouldnt have to pay until baby bonus was processed if I didn't want to. Oh well my choice I spose can't complain.

    HSM - that big OB payment is a big one huh! I remember it from my first two births - $2,000 is a lot of money straight up!

    I'm glad your midwife was lovely about it

    big hugs HSM i know that that wouldnt of been easy xx (are you still going to take her in with you??! i hope so! would be lovely!)

    Arimeh!! YAY!!! (and i think you are right. the only HB stories people like to hear are about the horror ones that reinforce their own decisions to birth in hospital).
