    Helly- good luck! I can't wait to read your birth story!

    Jennifer- so happy your appointment went well and that dh is feeling good about it. I think it's important that our dh's are comfortable too.

    Afm, well, I've been on a midwife ringing spree! Turns out it was more difficult than I though to get a mw who comes to my area and is available at the time. At about my 6 phone call I spoke to Andrea bilcliff who couldn't help me herself but gave me the number of another midwife who actually only lives about 10 minutes from me. She does a lot of work for Eastside midwives. I'll be meeting her next week.I hope we click. Very exciting!

    Eutra: the tap fitting this is easy to organise. as the others have said, just go to your local hardware and get them to do the thinking we hooked ours up to the laundry taps as it was in the bathroom and we had a super long hose that was fed through to the dining (where I had the pool set up).

    Loulabelle: that is soooo exciting!! the other recommendation i can put forward is Jan Ireland. i met her the other day and she is so incredibly fab. not sure where she is based though

    Em: totally not strange! man, i would give anything to have DD2s birth again! it was amazing and the best thing that i have ever experienced; no joke! i was so sceptical before i had her of this 'joyous birth' stuff, but now i TOTALLY get it...and want more of it
