I had my apt with the lovely, capable, refreshing Donna, CMNP on Monday. It was perfect. Her office is actually a house that’s been renovated to be an office, but still feels very much like a house. As soon as I walked into the familiar, non sterile atmosphere I knew I had made the right decision with going back to her.
She greeted me with a hug and said “What a surprise! Again?!!!”. We chatted about this pregnancy and my desires for delivery. She reassured me that I wasn’t the screaming wench I remember myself being during the last birth and then looked me in the eyes and said “We’re going to do this again and you’re going to be just as great!”. Awwwwww. I”m in love.
I finally feel pregnant. Somehow seeing Donna made everything real. I immediately went home and registered at Target online. (Did you know they are carrying slings and Hooter Hiders now? So cool!)
I love my midwife and am so excited to see this little girl in October!

My Target store doesn’t have the Peanut Shell yet, but I’ve seen the Hooter Hiders and thought about getting one. Peanut Shell has some really cheap deals on their website right now though…probably cheaper than Target.
Hi Mary,
Did you hear the latest fuss on the AMA and home births, as told by Rikki Lake and the ladies from that Business of Being Born documentary?
Oh I’m so happy for you!!!! I hope I have a great experience like I’m sure you will have!
Oh man, I love the hooter hiders. I wish I had one of those, I can’t tell you how many times the “girls” have been whipped out in public! LOL
I’m excited for you. Do you have a due date range?
