Tangozulu--you just confirmed my choice! I just started the core plan yesterday, in fact, and I really LOVE IT. As I was reading on it I realized it was perfect with nursing, and although they say you shouldn't do the online plan while...

I think it also depends on how old your kids are. Obviously, we don't *feel* like yelling at a newborn (Well, I can remember being very very frustrated with my new baby girl who would NOT stop screaming and had to take some breaks and...

I am interested in the online program but still nursing DS (20 months). He is down to one nursing in the morning and maybe 2 or 3 short ones in the afternoon or evening. I don't think I'm producing much milk anymore based on the fact...

And thank you so much to all of you who responded with such helpful thoughts and support. It is good to remember the amazing things my body has done all this time in supporting these beautiful little persons rather than hating it for...

What led me....I just didn't need it. For me it has been who I know, not the letters after my name. I got hooked up with some busy midwives and the rest is blissful baby history. I also don't do hospitals by choice, but I think it might...

First of all I go get something to EAT because I'm usually starving. If it's morning I always get a Starbucks mocha...I unwind with e-mail and MDC...then take a hot soothing bath (night) or shower (day). At some point (either before...

I would say homebirth all the way, just from what you've said. They probably freaked because of the GBS + risk. Everything you mentioned is something I see our midwives deal with so easily and calmly. No big deal. Mommies watch their...
