This Blog is the first blogg I have EVER done! The idea behind this blogg is to tell people about our struggle to have a pure home birth. We have so many things in place but are having a very hard time saving up the money to pay our midwife what her fee is. We are doing what we can but as everyone knows saving is easier said than done.

Well here we are agian...
Ok so it's the end of day four past due and today has been a busy one. We ran errands before the midwives arrived today and arrived back at home just as my primary had arrived. My (mother-in law) bought me some oils today to make a couple of labour room mists. This is something I am going to try and get done before I go to bed. The day was a good one over all. I think my body is trying to tell me that it won't be too long now because while making dinner I became REALLLY tired. So then I ate and laid down for the evening. Now that I am up I still feel tired and have plans on hitting the bed real soon. Everything is ready to go here and my midwives have decided that we are ready when she is. To be honest my primary is too funny. They came for a visit and just kinda hung out for a bit. SO I concluded that they were waiting around with hopes that my water would break, and she agreed that that would suit her fine. From my house her drive time is about 2 hours depending on traffic and with it being summer and road construction happening it is a bit longer now. Then my secondary lives an hour away but the road construction is effecting her drive time too. After our apt they both met up with another local midwife for dinner and called me when they were done to see if there was any progress. I was sad to report that nothing had really changed and they would have to wait a bit longer. I do have to say that i think it is kinda funny that everyone is getting a bit anxious for her arrival. My family are so amazing, they call and check on me all the time to make sure that they know what is happening now. My mom is concerned she will be in Toledo when I go into labour and my dad and step mom are heading to marietta too this weekend. I wish I could help them feel more at ease about whether they will be able to be there or not, but I just don't have any answers for them. Another thing that I find is funny is that I keep being asked if anyone has any idea of how much longer till she arrives. I just say no that there is no real way of telling that at this point. SO you all know as much as I do. I am off to bed for the night, I will be in touch soon. Take care everyone!
