Good to hear from you, Loulabelle. As my m/w said to me, try to ignore it and get on with your day (and night). It's all doing what it should be and your body is birthing as it should. It won't be long until you meet your little one!
I reckon all my early labour got me to at least 4 cms before things kicked up. Also worked beautifully to help my baby into a perfect position. So it's all useful, if not intense. Plus, you're already a birthing pro.
Things are going so well here. Maybe I should whisper this, but DD2 is a fantastic night time sleeper. Refuses to be put down to sleep during the day and has a lot of awake time (all the interruptions with DD1 and school, for starters), but come 7pm she is ready for final cuddles and then into her hammock. She does wake up at some point after I go to bed, but it's a quick feed and snuggle in with me to cosleep until after 7am.![]()
So I'm getting very into babywearing during the day and sending prayers of thanks for my evenings and nights!
If this keeps up I probably can talk DP into another in a few years! It must sound so weird to others, but you HBers understand how excited I would be to give birth again!
I watched the preview for the Face of Birth doco tonight. I'm going along to the premiere in two weeks. I started crying watching the women interviewed talking about how empowering and joyous their homebirths were. I concurred with every word!
I am hoping to go to the premiere too, with bub. My MW is organising the screening in my town. I am sure I will cry. As long as bub doesn't!
morning everyone.
I'm thinking that we have some action! contractions about 10 mins apart and starting to be too uncomfortable to lie down. lots of blood tinged stuff etc. excited and scared at the same time! hopefully ill be back some time today with a ba.

I think we're all sitting here right now remembering our own births as you have yours. With you in spirit.
One of the quotes from an indigenous woman in the movie preview said every birthing woman is a holy woman. Go Loulabelle!
Just popping in quickly to wish you all the best Loulabelle!! Probably too late already! LOL
Hi everyone, looks like a birth is happening how exciting! Hope it goes well
So from the day I got my BFP, DH has been pretty keen for a homebirth. I've always wanted a waterbirth but undecided about home or hospital. Have just been on the Community Midewifery WA website, directed DH to it and we're feeling super excited, it's looks fantastic! Any ladies in Perth out there with experience with CMWA? Did you get in easily, did you love it? I'm only 9 weeks but I like to research my options.
woohoo!!!!!! yay loulabelle!!! Many birth blessings sweetie
Lady neon, I have no idea, but good luck! Oh and welcome![]()
Lady Neon - MadB went through that program and thought it was great. You might like to PM her. There are certain restrictions on accessing the public HB programs so it's a good idea for your first birth. GL!
Plenty of home water birthers in here who think it's the way to go.![]()
Thinking of you Loulabelle!! Very blissful thinking of your wonderful home birth in action![]()
