    Excellent! So happy to hear you are having excited positive experiences!

    Midwives Naturally are great, I am with them too, although I am not with Nicola. I have friends who birthed with her last time and are using her again and speak very highly of her.

    The long appointments are just wonderful aren't they?!

    Don't worry, I still text my midwife and she has dropped over a few times, so I like to think we're just on a break until the next bub!

    I think partners benefit so much from the midwife care too... I know my dh had a special relationship with my midwife and felt so involved iykwim?

    Can't wait to hear your thoughts on Rhea!
