Bump...and a new fun read.  Since we all either have toddlers, or will soon have toddlers, this blog is a must read for comedic relief.  I was laughing so hard this morning while reading it that I woke up DD2 from her nap.

Oh my goodness - so much great stuff here, I may not even sleep tonight ;) This line killed me:

SHE EATS THE ACORN FAST LIKE IT’S THE LAST DOVE BAR AND A CHEMICAL REACTION IN HER STOMACH BEGINS TO TURN IT INTO A BABY. EIGHT YEARS LATER, A BABY WILL PUNCH ITS WAY OUT OF HER LEFT LEG.

I was up late last night reading about ecstatic birth and alternative pain management techniques. Our first two deliveries were med-free, then I caved and took IV medication during my third because the labor was super fast and intense. I regretted it when it was time to push, though. 

This time, I'm trying to get myself in the right frame of mind ahead of time so that I don't go in expecting labor to progress a certain way and then freak out because it happens differently. I really need to learn how to purposefully accept whatever happens and trust my body.
