haha I think you'll be lucky if he fits in that onesie! I would have a vomit bowl close by. And also, you may want to look into some homeopathics for post-partum bleeding/haemorrage, Shepherd's Purse is commonly used to stop heavy bleeding and has saved many women from hospital transfers.
I'm so excited for you, and a bit jealous since I had a hospital birth which SUCKED lol. Homebirth really isn't supported here in Aus like it should be.
@MsEz81 I know!!! I have a feeling he may not fit into his newborn stuff :p How I forgot a vomit bowl I have nooo idea, but thank you for reminding me! I am gonna read up on the Shepherd's Purse today and go from there. I am declining Pitocin after delivery soo any natural remedy for the same idea is great! I've heard Australia doesn't really support it, its crazy!! And I thought the U.S.A was bad for not really supporting it.
@newlyweds08 Arnica drops? Never heard of them, but I will look them up and see what you are talking about! I soo wish I could have aroma therapy candles or insence, I use to use them while meditating, but my one kitty has severe asthma so I can't use that stuff anymore :( Yup, I have done some of it since 34 weeks, but I am too lazy and haven't done it since, plus its not my cup of tea.
That's awesome that you are doing a home birth! I wish I could consider it but due to being on blood thinners, I am probably going to have a scheduled induction or c-section :( I mean, I guess it's better than a possible hemorrhage huh? haha Awesome video for those considering it!! So helpful :)
Loved watching your cat in the background! Haha! You are definitely prepared! Don't forget ice chips (for sucking on) and a relaxing CD (to zone on during contractions)! Hope your home birth goes off without a hitch. Can't wait to meet your little one. :)
@JessC00k Shes a little bugger when it comes to that crib, she tries to find ways to sleep in it :p yesss ice chips!! I will make sure our ice cube trays are full! I hope soo too, thanks Jess!
You are so adorable! and it's exciting to relive this experience through your's - my daughter is nearly 5 months old already and I remember the anticipation and excitement right before labor was the best part. I will be sending you good vibes.
@nannerskins No I could not have a home birth because I live in a rural - about 50 min from the hospital - no licensed midwife would agree. Sooo, I had a midwife in the hospital. I labored for 2 days (1 at home, 1 hotel) & finally went into the hospital only to find out I was only 4 cm but w/in a few minutes my water broke and I delivered within 2 hours of arrival (all natural). Apparently the baby was face up which caused long labor but mdiwife helped me flip her - only 10 min of pushing! yay.
@melodicmint Wow, sounds amazing even if you weren't able to have a home birth! and midwives are great aren't they?! I LOVE mine! Congratulations on doing it all natural, especially with her being faced up, I know that can cause bad back labour as well. and holy 10 minutes of pushing, I doubt I will be that lucky hahaha
are you gonna film your birth? i was gonna say music ,lol but just seen where you put i pod on the end of your video. i hope you have a quick and sfae and easy birth :)
@mrsjerriq I am not sure? I want to, but I am always the one behind the camera, but we might be able to get my doula to film it. I know at least I want to get a few clips in through out the labour and same with pictures HOPEFULLY! Me too, thanks!!! :)

arnica drops are great apparently, also maybe some aroma therapy candles or insence?
Also perineal massage can be done from 34weeks :) im about to start, helps reduce the likelyhood of tearing
