Well, today marks the official start of my last month of pregnancy :) It is thrilling and scary at the same time! There is so much to do before she comes, and so much uncertainty about how life will be after, but mostly we are just getting excited to meet our new little girl. I can't wait to see what she looks like. I can't wait to get to know her and her own unique little personality. And I can't wait for Noelle to have a sister. My sister was always my best friend growing up and I hope these little girlies will be close.
I have been thinking a lot about birth plans and options, and have decided to try and go for an unmedicated, natural birth. I know a lot of people probably think I'm crazy. Actually I slightly mentioned the possibility of it once on facebook and nearly started a fistfight between two of my friends who were very adamant about their own views on the subject. The funny thing is that it was two guys lol :D Anyway, before Noelle I thought I would never want to go unmedicated, but having one baby changes your views on everything I think :) Let's see what having two does!

I dont think you are crazy at all- in fact everyone thought i was crazy because i wanted a natural birth but at home too. so just have a natural birth is not that crazy. I would say for me how i did it natural is by having a ton of support in the delievery room- i had 3-4 people telling me i could do it and how strong i was and good i was doing and all the progress i was making. and it really help me believe i could and get through the hard parts (mind you i did still say "give me the drugs!" but that was towards the end and i was almost done so they talked me out of it which i am glad for. I did enjoy feeling all the joys and after the baby comes out you feel on cloud 10000million, so i love that part-but the hurting part just makes having a baby more worth it because anything worth doing is hard right? and it will mean the most- or thats just what i think. sorry this comment is long i just wanted to say go for it but be sure you want it natural 100% or else the doubt will over take you. good luck and keep me posted!
I am so excited to see her!It's nice to have plans for what you would like.I have learned that plans keep me motivated, and even though sometimes it doesn't go exactly how I planned it all works out for the best.Things will go well, and be better than last time. :) Love you!
