Been a while. . ..sorry about that. I really am.
I guess the time gets to all of us, that or I'm just ordinary. :)
I told my Mother how I felt about the wedding, she talked to her friend and was mortified that people talked to me that way. I found out things that happened behind scenes that while it doesn't excuse the behavior, it explains it.
The woman who told me I wasn't 'part of the family' was told off by her brother (the father of the groom) for dressing their mother inapropriately.
The Bride and Groom were really upset or worried about where to put Lou and I. . . they didn't have room with my brother and they didn't want to put me with people that they used to work with, as my Mom worked with them too and she didn't get along with many people at work, so they sat us with her friends. Which as I said before, I had a great time with. I should email that girl. hrm. . .
Well I don't know if I have told everyone on here this yet, but I can feel the baby move. Lou can't yet, he's disapointed in that, so I poke him when I feel peanut move. It started a little before 13 weeks, so I'm in tune with my body, big shocker there.
I also watched a documentary on birth called the
business of being born. In the documentary it focuses on things like how doctors really don't know what they are doing and they get too involved in the natural thing our bodies do when it comes to birth.
I really felt amazing after watching that documentary. I know many women are terrified of birth, I'm actually looking forward to it. As most of you should know by now, I'm birthing with a midwife, mostly becasue I do not want extra means used and I don't want to be strapped to a bed.
Midwives let you birth how you choose and the most natural way to do so is squatting, not on your back as OB's would make you do.
So I feel all happy about that. :)
I also am feeling all happy that I really knew this was the direction I wanted to go in and that I could with some work. I know that with every birth there are chances for things to happen and not every birth goes as planned, but right now. . .I am actually planing for the best and not worrying about the worst. :)
