    I didn't, but I made a herbal solution that I soaked maternity pads in and froze, about a month before I was due. They were the bees knees! I googled the recipe and it turns out I had all the necessary oils at the time. Some of my oils went missing while we lived at MiL's (she stashed our things and forgot where she put them...including my expensive aromatherapy products!), so I may well have to stock up again.

    Congratulations Loulabelle!! Another wee man to add to the family! That is so crap about the treatment at hospital...especially considering their lack of judgement when you first presented prior to labour

    The_Mrs: that is relieving news at least that your midwife carries that with her. I had a PPH at 5 weeks (!!) PP. it was for retained placenta. i was surprised actually by how calm i was. we called an ambulance (after calling my IM to confirm) and away we went. it was scary, but calm all rolled into one IYKWIM.

    Teni: oooohhh it is creeping up!! exciting exciting

    Bella: i was pooping my pants way more this second HB time around...for me it was because i now knew how awesome having a baby at home could be and i was scared even more then of having to miss out and go to hospital.
