Trust ...Thanks for sharing your thoughts Shirliza. Trust your instincts. They are almost always right. Natural child birth, breastfeeding, and cloth diapering were the only options are mothers, grandmothers, and great grandmothers had. Seemed to work for them. :)<br /><br />oh, and I totally understand finding out the gender. I felt like I was able to bond so much more with Addy once I knew she was Addy.Team Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13083351395933324133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1241464387607785594.post-76468074857156783592010-10-27T17:56:29.186-07:002010-10-27T17:56:29.186-07:00<3 you can totally do all of the above. i lab...<3 you can totally do all of the above. i labored in a birth center and LOVED it! I ended up transferring to the hospital and ultimately she was delivered by C-Section... but if I had it to do over again, I'd still spend those first 24 hours in the Birth Center!! It was like being in labor at the spa. And most people who laugh in your face about how much work cloth diapers are have never even considered the idea, much less tried it. :)Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01163139880991733914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1241464387607785594.post-49128281869395665622010-10-27T17:25:49.749-07:002010-10-27T17:25:49.749-07:00I chose to give birth w/o the epidural simply beca...I chose to give birth w/o the epidural simply because I wanted to save money. At the time, I really wanted a rocking chair to nurse my baby on and I just fell in love with it. Of course, it cost the same amount of money as an epidural, thus, it being my motivation to be epidural free. Crazy idea, I know. But, it was MY choice. haha, I'm sure people would have plenty of things to say about this, haha. p.s. also because I wanted the best for my health and my baby's health. It's just more fun talking about my rocking chair and see people's reactions. I still have that rocking chair and I LOVE it. I nursed my baby in it everyday and now I read to him while he sits right next to me or on my lap. Great memories!JYBabeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14113206455362923953noreply@blogger.com
