Homebirth General Discussion #20

[Tegam]

I am done, I am completely broken. Not sure if its the 10yr almost continuous pregnancy, breast feeding cycle or the fact that I am ten years older, but this pregnancy has been my far the hardest emotionally and physically I have faced. I do not want to be the mother I have been these past weeks ever again. I understand that it's a small sacrifice for the huge benefit of adding to the family, I know I am being harder on myself than necessary but I also think enough is enough. Time to enjoy this little bug and know that I achieved the large family I wanted. I will only be 36 when bug arrives but that was the upper age limit we had always set ourselves. And we started young to finish young.

32 weeks meow, you say that like it isn't far away....which scares me lol. But yes I believe that it would be best to save nesting until you are in your nest and all alone to make it yours. Sorry that your father is a negative energy.

SJ have you ridden your horse yet? Glad you are all feeling better.

I haven't ever done anything with my placenta, but seeing I have been so flat this pregnancy I have asked my MW for the name of the lady she uses to encapsulate. I know I can do it myself (eenee) but the chances of me getting around to it are low. I tell a bit of a lie, I remember with DS birth that I knew if I had bleeding that I could cut some of the placenta off and put it up against my gums and that could stop the excess bleeding, anyone else hear this??

And in other news.... I sent my first assignment in today...... Ahhhh wish me luck.
