Well, the home-birth is on and I've told everyone I can think of (Doula, Photographer, Parents, Kate, Ashely). I think non-birth team members are a little hesitant, but I'm mostly being met with support - which is really nice.
I even posted my switch to a home-birth at 38 and weeks in my crunchy mom's group and received comments that "you're an inspiration" and lots of contracts :)
This switch has required us to buy a lot more stuff and my nesting has been kicked into high-gear.
Mom and Dad arrived yesterday. I doesn't yet seem as hectic as I thought...and mom even commented that I look a lot calmer than the last time she saw me!
I have my 2nd prenatal apt with my new midwife scheduled for next wednesday. At that appointment I'll hand in my paperwork and payment.
This midwife even has a separate waiver to sign just for breech births. It mentions she will only do frank breech births (which is what Sean's birth was listed at), but this baby is sort of an incomplete/footling breech. She's done one before and it ready to do it again.
She asked me if I can be filmed and used as a training video - I don't want that. Dan's been trying to push me to do it, which I think is rude, but I'm holding my ground here and not allowing filming.
Sean mentioned to me that the way we have been acting lately makes him feel like we don't love him anymore. It's extremely hard to hear, but at the same time I'm glad he's able to voice that to us.
