I'm CD'ing out of necessity--I was going to use disposables for the first few weeks but he pees too much for the newborn size (they leak--both Huggies and Pampers) and he doesn't quite fit into the size 1's. Honestly, it's been VERY...

Me! I will be giving birth in a traditional L & D with an OB. However, my OB is very very crunchy and big on evidence based medicine, I love him to pieces. It's the same OB and hospital I had my 3 year old DS with so I'm pretty...
