Hi girls!

Welcome to the newcomers!

Suga: ahh thanks for the reminder about the tax offset. so much to remember...

Infinity: for me, i didnt think to ask my midwife for ages about transfer times between waters breaking and labour starting (my waters broke last time without labour for quite a few hours). we discussed it and have come to an arrangement that we are both comfortable with. but maybe just have a good think about what his/her protocols are for EDD and going over, breech, transfer reasons etc etc. i found that questions are still coming up as it is pretty hard to think of it all at once. the BIG thing is that you and the midwife have a CONNECTION and get along. that's the biggest one IMO.

Tashy: yeah i'm not sure if i will end up birthing in the pool. i am very taurean and LOVE my land feet lol. but i did use the shower for a lot of relief last time, but once transition hit i wanted dry land to birth...wonder what this time will bring??!

AFM: travelling along well here. had a fall the other day that resulted in some pretty nasty pain across the lower belly, but bubs was active as ever and i spent the whole night resting. all good now thankfully. got to remember that i am a clumsy person at the best of times lol. seeing my IM soon it has been awhile between drinks and i am needing some face to face contact now. the calmbirth classes are going fantastically! although DH keeps falling asleep all the time LOL! told him he needs a good coffee beforehand so he can actually listen to the class instead of passing out during the relaxation lol.
