    Hey Melanie......

    Melanie...you are the sweetest person! Offering to process my placenta. That would truly be a labor of LOVE!! I found some site that describes the process - I'm not sure what I'll do, but I do know.....I couldn't send you something that weird! But you are a saint to offer!!!! I've had...

    Hey Melanie......

    I also meant to say "your birth, Kate....it was SO beautiful". I want that birth - so cool. Really the last 2 of mine were very good, but I still wouldn't say painless. They were very tolerable compared to the first 4 which were $%&@#$%% - really that bad! I will try to keep you...

    Hey Melanie......

    Stephanie....you just sound so sweet. And you know what - it really doesn't matter how or where you have a baby - they are all a gift from God. Natural birth is just an "area" that greatly intrigues me and so it's so fun to talk about with others on the forum. I am one of those "I hate...

    Hey Melanie......

    No, no, no Stephanie, see here's what's happening....we've been told for so many years that birth doesn't happen naturally that we've come to believe it's just one big painful event with lots of intervention - via doctor's, hospitals, etc. It USED to happen very naturally and in the animal...

    Hey Melanie......

    Marie Mongan. Hypnobirthing, the Mongan Method. I just spoke to a midwife that said she used it with her 2-3 babies and said it wasn't that different. BUT....I know there was a real difference between my babies when I began using stomach breathing through the "surges". My 5-6...

    Hey Melanie......

    Oh...of course you can tell people your half way!!!! :) I'm finally getting back here to check this thread!! I'm going to get some lab work done today and get a run down on how to deliver a baby. We haven't really developed any plan this time. I did take the stock tank back from the...

    Hey Melanie......

    I was just looking at the calendar today and thinking wow...I'm now 9 months pregnant. AND then I thought of how much fun it was to argue with you about just "how pregnant" I really am. Like right now you'd say I'm 8 months pregnant and I'd say I "completed" 8 months and am now in my 9th...

    Why don't people think before they speak?

    Hi Wendy, I haven't checked in too much, but hope to more in the future. I read over your post and want to send hugs. To me, it is very convicting, I have never had a miscarriage and I KNOW that I just can't feel the pain that you are going through, but it must be very hard. I am pregnant...

    Jennifer, I would love to sit and have coffee!!! I love talking about birth - (okay truth be told, I forgot about it for 5 years, but now I've suddenly been thrown back into it again - PTL). Regarding recovery, I began working out with baby number 5 and when I pushed her out I stood up and...

    Jennifer you are so cute, just so you know...I am an INCREDIBLE wimp when it comes to pain. I have zippo tolerance, when I get sick the whole house KNOWS about it. That being said...I have never had pain medication during childbirth with any of the 6 kids I've had. I have punched walls (or...

    ummm...Mel....I delivered in a "stock tank" to be exact. It's the one my husband gave to our horses 4 months ago stating "we'll never be using this again". Never say never. I'd really like to deliver in the Black Sea with dolphins...but unless about $20,000 drops out of the sky...that...

    Hi Jennifer. Welcome to the forum. I am pregnant with baby number 7, also a surprise. Your plan for workouts and nutrition sound perfect to me. I ate this way with the last two babies. Obviously you'll listen to your body in regards to exercise. I plan on starting the STS on Monday...
