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.

I was at the funeral. (Becky is my sister) You are a Melissa Sue too....RIGHT?? I am also due in May (20th). All I remember about you is playing baseball together in Idaho at a reunion. The 2 Melissa Sue's were on the same team! hahaha :o)
Good luck with all the homebirth planning. I know Becky sure loved it!
