Thoughtful Motherhood - Homebirth Announcement

Nov. 2, 2006 - Homebirth Announcement

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.

I totally understand your desire to birth at home. I have always dreamed of being able to do it, but my babies were all too early to be delivered at home. So ... off to the hospital! ((sigh)) Sounds like you have a great plan for making connections *prior* to your labor. Praying for a wonderful birthing experience and a healthy little one in your arms soon!

About Me

I'm an almost ordinary mom. I'm a bit quirky in my tendency toward conspiracy theory and activism. I shout at the tv, which drives my hubby crazy. I was once a single mom of one son and God redeemed me with an amazing husband who loved us both. Later, God took my barren womb and knit together three little men in two and half years, and then shocked the stuff out of us knitting together a little lady. This blog is totally random, following the trends that only occur in my mind. My biggest aim is to live my life more joyfully and more thoughtfully.
