    Sorry you're not getting a homebirth Arimeh, but the BC sounds good! Not too bad as compromises go

    We're all set for the birth - once we've finished eating the icecream that is (need the container for the placenta).
    Laura pretty much said they don't recommend suturing unless the tearing is quite extensive and/or bleeding lots, so I guess that sounds reasonable.

    yay for no stitches! i swear i didnt even notice the tear this time around! no stinging or anything!

    Marc: wow, i just looked at your sig!!!! you are definitely on the home stretch!!! oh my gosh it is all just so exciting!!! i wish i could relive Marta's birth all over again!!! i also wish that i had of remembered to film it. luckily my birth support midwife is also a professional photographer so she has taken some beautiful shots, but man i wish i had a video to remember it all....

    YAY Arimeh is back! I dont see why you cant stay and chat! I am probably not having one this time either but i still like to talk the talk!!

    Marcellus: you know i had trouble finishing the ice cream last time cause everytime i ate it i thought of my placenta being in it! Congrats on being all set, thats a nice feeling for you! I like the sound of your MW re the stitches!

    Meow: how you feeling??
