I found ridiculous things to nest about - the instinct was so strong I took to vacuuming the Friday before L was born (she was born Tue morning), and I knew it would render me useless the next day!
I only started taking RLT the morning my labour started (the Monday) because I'd forgotten all about it until then, and my BH started many weeks before that, so I can't say the RLT had anything to do with how rock hard my belly would become
A few women have told me in the last week and a bit that they didn't feel 'done' and are sad they won't have any more. I felt so good after L's birth that I thought maybe I could do another, but mostly I feel like I'm done because a)I need my pelvis back b)another break for my horse would be his retirement c) I'm two years away from 40 and I don't want to purposefully have another one at this stage!!
I'm starting to feel human again, even though my throat is still a little tickly and L seems to be over the worst of her brush with this cold.
I'm the talk of the maternity ward, apparently. I met another school mum on Friday who is20 weeks and another mum asked how the homebirth went. The first mum said the mw's had said there was another HB in the area and I told her that would be mine, the one and the same Sounds like I may have chipped away at the barrier, just a little, because the way she mentioned it was really positive, and not a bit like I'd gone and eaten my young
