Walking for awhile yesterday certainly brought on a bunch of Braxton Hicks, so here's hoping. :)<br /><br />Kristin, yes, it's a week because of the previous c-section. Otherwise, it's 14 days here, too. Yup, some of the terminology in Ina May's book cracks me up. There is a ton of helpful info in there, though! I just requested her breastfeeding book from the library, so I'm hoping that it arrives before the boy does. :) I feel like I've forgotten everything I knew before!Sherriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18101301185473329250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-28454253926760560272010-03-07T14:15:08.829-04:002010-03-07T14:15:08.829-04:00Wow!

'Round these parts it's 14 days, but I don't know if that's only for non-c-section mamas.<br /><br />My midwife recently mentioned something to me about "there are things you can do ..." to have a baby come earlier rather than later. I'll ask her specifically what she suggests. In the meantime, I'm simply sending "Come out on time - or better yet, a few days early!" thoughts to this sweet boy.<br /><br />(I spent the last two weeks of my first pregnancy reading both of Ina May's books, over and over again. What a wonderful way to prepare. The first one, and its "far-out, man" terminology, is good for a few giggles amongst the birth stories.)The Schneldaleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00900537213680658017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-64495254452080335902010-03-06T17:59:26.041-04:002010-03-06T17:59:26.041-04:00Long walks!

Long walks!<br />I went for a long walk with Mum and Tante Shirleen the day before the newt decided to start his trip through the birth canal. :)ingridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09658931923816418442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-24250611405939829422010-03-06T10:42:09.573-04:002010-03-06T10:42:09.573-04:00Best of luck with the VBAC!

My c-section with my first was due to "failure to progress" - second time around, I spent most of my day in labour walking around my neighborhood, and waited a lot longer to go to the hospital. I'm sending positive thoughts your way...Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17229977760242494008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-20388574166469636262010-03-05T23:39:26.135-04:002010-03-05T23:39:26.135-04:00My doctor told me on my birthday that my little on...My doctor told me on my birthday that my little one should come that night. I bawled and cried and convinced him to wait until morning so he could have his own birthday. I'm so glad I did...he would have not liked to share his special day with me!Stacey J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14847608642307248024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5290052487699651767.post-76387421234982221332010-03-05T21:18:20.737-04:002010-03-05T21:18:20.737-04:00That looks like an interesting book.

Reminds me of one I read not too long ago, <a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Baby-Catcher-Chronicles-Modern-Midwife/dp/0743219333/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1267838063&sr=1-2" rel="nofollow">Baby Catcher</a>, that almost made me want to get pregnant again. Almost. <br /><br />Good luck with the VBAC. Hope it all goes just the way you want it to.Bobbiannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738491322806509033noreply@blogger.com
