There have been several little things over the past week or so that I've been meaning to write about, but never found the time/motivation to do so, so I'm going to lump most of them together right here.

1.  Therapy has been weird lately.  I've been seeing the same therapist for 9 years now, and she's been a lifesaver for me.  She has seen me through

I planned for a home birth and wound up with a hospital birth, they're not all bad! the business of being born is more of a scare tactic, I think both sides need to be introduced as safe places for babies to be born, forcing someone into the hospital to give birth is not ok, and forcing a home birth on someone who would otherwise be more comfortable at a hospital is not ok either. I don't do well with shock tactics, no matter the topic, whateveer place and method you choose to bring your baby (danica!!) to this world is completely your business, and no way is a wrong way.

As long as I feel heard & respected, and we end up with a healthy baby and healthy, happy moms, everything is okay. It's just that I can drive myself nuts trying to get all the planets to line up just right in the mean time to maximize the chances of everything going just right. I know my body will do what it needs to do if left unhindered, it's just the people around me who I worry about fucking things up, which is why I would prefer a homebirth, but I'm trying to think positively and have faith in these strangers I don't know at the hospital :)
