How exciting Marcellus! I have my booking visit next Monday with.. um... was it Karen? Sue is on leave apparently. Which hossy are you using as a backup?
Cassius: Not long to go at all! The next 11 weeks or so will fly by!! How is your friend and her bubby doing?
Great news marcellus! So exciting. I love hearing the heartbeat too. I've got a quick check with my m/w in the morning, I got a bit paranoid over the weekend because I feel like I've had less movement from bub so she's calling in to have a quick check. So much nicer than having to go to the hospital.
Its funny, I already feel like I have a bowling ball sitting in my pelvis - the pressure is intense! I guess being second pregnancy everything kinda falls into place a lot easier. Here's hoping for another speedy labour with a vaginal birth this time at the end LOL!
Cassius, how is your friend doing? Sounds like things were very fast for her and her LO.
Taryn probably Stoked, she's doing the fill-in work for people away at the moment. She's nice. Which hossy did you use last time? I wasn't sure about swans, it's just down the road from here but felt maybe king eddies would be better. Taryn said Sue often uses Swans though - I'll talk to her about it once we meet.
it was sooooooo wonderful having an appointment at home!!!!! DS was asleep when she got there. then woke up all grumpy. then finally settled down and I got him some lunch. And all during the appointment. so cool.
Hi girls, quietly popping in to register my interest in learning about all things HB.
We are TTC at the end of this year and DP has said he is okay with me having a HB (which was a major obstacle). So while I'm not even pg yet, I'd love to learn from all of your experiences as you travel the road before me! Mine will be a HBAC. So I'll be watching Infinity with much interest!
hi jennifer and welcome woot woo on DH! such a good feeling when you can both be on the same track and approach this together. i reckon that has been the most amazing aspect so far with our HB journey...we are together in creating our space for this new arrival and no one comes in to interfere or block him out. such a special time to share with him and DD...
AFM: i need to book my 30 week appt with my back up midwife (and friend). however have to admit that i am slightly reluctant as i know that she is still reeling from the birth of our other friends son last week and i really dont want to set the wrong kind of mood ITMS. thinking i might hold off until 31 weeks....what do you guys think?
I'm not sure Cassius - I guess there's no harm in waiting an extra week anyway.
Hi Jen - hope you're here officially soon...
I was thinking the same thing about DH being more involved with a homebirth. But he's so distracted with his job and other current obsessions he seems largely uninterested in the pregnancy. Oh well, i guess it's still early days yet. I just konw with him I need to get in very early and keep at it to actually get anythign out of him. As long as he manages to sort the pool out on the day we should be right.
Just wanted to come in and tell you how proud of my DH I am! He was on the phone to MIL tonight to tell her we are having a homebirth- well it did not go down well, and I was waiting for DH to be influenced by what she had to say especially considering he took awhile to come around to the idea. WELL he was excellent, he imediately started rambling off facts about homebirth (who would have thought he actually listened to things
i said) and saying how safe it is etc. I gave him the hugest hug afterwards! He told her that he doesn't care what she thinks cos we're doing it anyway. Then he said look i'll give you stuff to read about it, and then told her he had to go. Cos she can get on her high horse. So what do you girls recommend that I give MIL to read? My parents are fine with it same with FIL it's just MIL, but i know she can get under DH's skin so I don't want her changing his mind.
