My online friend, Peach, had her baby at home this morning at 5:14am. It was an unassisted birth, no midwife, and baby and momma are doing very well. Peach is an inspiration...oh, how I wish I could birth this baby at home. I HATE the hospital, and everyone in it. I hate the birthing, the nursing, the doctors, the visitors, the beds, the nurses, the lab workers, etc. Okay, I'd better stop complaining. I actually have a plan. Starting tomorrow, I'm going up to the hospital once a week until the baby is born. I'll be taking the nurses cookies or treats of some kind. This is my attempt to humanize ourselves to each other. So, instead of seeing me as a patient, they see me as a person. We'll see if it works.
