Love my midwife :)

Other than the driving to her house, which you have to go down some po-dunk roads in Hardin County, my midwife is great!!! I just had an appt. last night urine and sugar was great. My Hemoglobin was 14!!! I hope it stays up that high. Heartbeat was 146, she said "sounds like another girl to me," so Jason is pretty bummed about that, he is really hoping for a son. Other than that, we just talked about births and my hopes for this birth and things that scare me, etc. Those are the kinds of things that are wayyy better than seeing a physician, well, because other than that it sounds like a doctor visit, right? But according to ACOG I'm not even getting any "prenatal care." This is me rolling my eyes at you ACOG.

Yup, we are...

Pregnant, actually about 14 weeks, due in May and planning a homebirth. I met with a direct entry midwife about a month ago. I really like her and because she is delivering a majority of Amish, she has had experience with breech and actually has to use neonatal resuscitation. Not that I'm planning on my baby being resuscitated, but you get my drift. I'm finding the MDC forums very helpful in planning, and just hearing other stories of homebirthers is a little refreshing. Mom and Dad are being very supportive, surprising. My MIL has been great at getting things logistically, because she is "in the loop" of the homebirthers from the 80's. Allyson is not impressed, I suppose that will come.
