I am so thankful, and quite honestly AMAZED that God has blessed me with two healthy little girls! I just find it humorous that I can THINK I have it all figured out, and God quickly reminds me who is truly in charge once again.<br /><br />"In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps" -Proverbs 16:9Shaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11029838850583886300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1186839552215047802.post-13555923138469462612009-10-07T20:57:25.672-07:002009-10-07T20:57:25.672-07:00So glad you wrote your story.

It's so neat that A.J. got to deliver Bryce. <br /><br />You are braver than I. Or maybe it's a matter of experience. With my history of difficult births and hemorrhaging I don't think I could be convinced to go without a couple of experienced midwives by my side. :-) I also like to have my hubby by my head while I'm laboring, he helps me not hyperventilate. But, I think he would find it really neat to deliver one of his babies. With a midwife handy... ;-)<br /><br />I love hearing all kinds of experiences and preferences. It's so amazing the diversity God created in His children. What rich experiences in life we all have in our different situations.RavenMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04446409798180864383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1186839552215047802.post-65059137000705429342009-10-07T09:22:30.614-07:002009-10-07T09:22:30.614-07:00Dearest Shauna, I figure that if plan M or Q is wh...Dearest Shauna, I figure that if plan M or Q is what it takes to get a precious healthy baby in the end, that's about as good as any other plan.<br />I forget there are some ladies who go through all the work and have to give their little bundle back to the Lord before they get to enjoy the dear sweet moments we have been privileged with.<br /><br />Of course I'll snuggle baby boy for you!! My pleasure! ;-)<br /><br />Morgan, We had our first four at Feather River too. Both because of insurance and convenience.<br />I have to say that the experiences we had there were the next best thing to having babies at home!<br /><br />Having the last two at home were even better and totally worth the 2,500 dollars (or whatever it was).<br /><br />Bryce was less "expensive" of course since we didn't have a midwife, but that is not necessarily a mode of operation I would recommend;-) <br />There's a fine line between recognizing childbirth to be a normal occurrence seldom needing a doctors assistance; but... it is common sense to have knowledgeable hands available in case of hemorrhage or need of resuscitation. It's pretty frowned upon to go it solo on purpose in our culture.<br /><br />Perhaps there will be more opportunities to try a homebirth? ;-)<br /><br />Love to you dear friend!<br />-AnaleneMomma Bughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12923509908553483017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1186839552215047802.post-23801605635953638982009-10-07T07:54:26.014-07:002009-10-07T07:54:26.014-07:00I'm so glad plan A worked for you!

Oh well, I only have two, maybe by the time I get to six I'll have one that goes according to "plan". <br /> Give Bryce a snuggle for me.Shaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11029838850583886300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1186839552215047802.post-60561884540293273802009-10-06T16:21:58.029-07:002009-10-06T16:21:58.029-07:00I really, really want a homebirth, but our insuran...I really, really want a homebirth, but our insurance will only cover a hospital birth.
