So good to hear from you Cricket ! I still can't believe he's here!

Arimeh: it's good to have positive dreams like that. Your body knows exactly what to do. Even your subconscious is reassuring you. You can do it!

The mrs. Good news about the doula! Your bub is due on my birthday! Awesome due date!

Bella: I hope your friend gets the care and support she is looking for. My midwife would do twins at a hospital. I think going to a midwife group and getting them to use the ob they trust would ge a good start. Down here we have an Ob they nickname vaginal Lionel because he is very pro vaginal deliveries.

HotI I really like meows interpretation of your dream. Pausing and consideration is not weakness, it's rationality. Raging and refusing based on fear is irrational.

I understand that 'patient' mentality you speak of though. I feel incredibly vulnerable when pg (also very strong) but I think this plays into the whole patient mentality when really we just need some extra special nurturing and care.
