Salsa that is so exciting!! I am not sure how you are able control yourself from looking at the envelope. Looking forward to your update.
Fish so glad that the cysts are getting smaller. That is such good news and congrats on a girl!
As far as a home birth there is no way I would have one. DH works in the ER and I have heard one too many horrific stories about babies and bleeding Moms that didn't end well. Plus DS1 had the cord wrapped around his neck twice and we wouldn't have known if it weren't for a HR monitor. He was born by emergency C-section and was blue when born. It really scared the crap out of me. I didn't get to see him for almost 9 hours and it was the worst and longest 9 hours ever.
I chose to have a C-section the second time around because I couldn't go though that again. I will have a C-section with this one also because I don't care about my recovery, all I care about is having a healthy baby that I can have in my room right after birth. I think people forget how many babies and Mom's died before the days of hospital birth. For me it isn't worth it. To anyone having a home birth I wish them a great experience and hope nothing goes wrong. It just isn't for me. I am not the type to really worry about things going wrong but when it comes to giving birth I don't think I could relax and enjoy it at home, I just know too much from first hand experience how things can go from completely normal to crazy, chaotic, and life threatening in the blink of an eye.
This ones transverse at moment but they say its too early to worry....Quote:

Names are a sore point in this house a the min. We are so sure we would be having a boy, bump has been baby Oakley since 6 weeks pregnant. Now we know we are having a girl the names gone out the window. I'm really panicing about finding a name i love as there seems to be none, i've gone through every baby name website on the net and nothing.
Wow your hospitals sound amazing. I was in hospital for 3 days with DS1 and it was honestly the worst 3 days of my life. With DS2 i was in overnight (he was born at 6pm so couldnt really go home at that time) and i was running out of the hospital the next day. You dont get looked after, just chucking in a room and poked and prodded every now and again. I didnt eat for 3 days with DS1 and i didnt even get offered anything to eat for the 18 hours i was in with DS2. All i can say is thank god my DH was there.
I'm feeling really nervous about my 20 week scan! It's a week today ! Had a scan at 17.5 confirmed girl, I'm so worried it will have grown bits next time and turned into a boy. Do u think there's any chance that could have happened?
I'm struggling with names too , so hard to agree on a name, especially when u never thought u would be lucky enough to have a little girl!
Daltag that was my experience too with ds1 hence my desire to get out ASAP ;-) must be good old nhs for you!
Have to say they have been fantastic with all these issues thou, when I saw twins consultant I said I didn't want to stay in and told her why and she admitted post natal was their lowest priority and first place to loose staff to other places which I do understand but I shall be aiming not to be in for long!
salsa how much longer you are killing me ;-0
DH will be home in just under 2 hrs!!! I will update as soon as I know'!!! It's killing me too!! I've have the envelope here all day just baiting me!! Not long now...
Good Luck Salsa :XX:
