3.45pm - Booked.. much?

Well, after a talk with the women & children's area of the hospital, I found out that I need to decide sooner than later about the type of labour that I want. Whether to go 'normal' hospital birth, with drugs and stuff... or to go a la naturale in the Birthing Centre, where the only 'drug' available to me is gas.

After thinking about it, and despite my abhorrent dislike of pain, I would really prefer a more natural, active labour. One of my girlfriends had such a good experience with her birth going more natural, and it inspired me to follow the same path.

So, I've booked DH, my mother and I into an information session about the Birthing Centre, and have tentitavely booked the birth in to.

So March will be full of appointments, being ultrasounds, Obs, hospitals...

WOO!
