Thank you beautiful mummas! I love the image of the Rose...I don't want anything bruising it!

We don't have a bath, (I know! ) but I am about to have a nice steamy shower with some of my favourite aromas going in the burner, play some nice music and relax. DH is going to jump in and wash my back (relaxes me soooo much). I need to stop listening to all these outside influences, over the last few days I've had every man and his dog telling me all this stupid advice (I can't stand it especially from people who have no children/have never been pregnant, and people who are pro interventionalist birth). So I'm going to retreat into my little cocoon for a bit I think, with my fit ball and some tea and just reflect. Isla will arrive peacefully and happily when she and my body choose, not forcefully or aburbtly because she's forced to for my own comfort. I'll just comfort myself in other ways - like imagining how beautifully she's growing in there, and how beautifully my body is doing.
