I had five of my children with a midwife in a birthing center that is a 100 year old house.I loved my midwife and her apprentices.<br />My pregnancy with Ruby was good but different from my others.Ruby was much smaller and was not as active in utero as my other babies.I did think something was not right.<br />I can't wait to see your new baby!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01013919287284128734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605290941469070740.post-61430458678455032042009-11-25T10:53:51.932-05:002009-11-25T10:53:51.932-05:00Happy all is going well.

That bought me a ticket right into the hospital. My midwives did have the ability to deliver her and be my sole care in the hospital though. With Wysdom as soon as they found out about the u/s I was sent to a specialist but I kept my midwife for sanity and just someone to talk to about everything. I had what felt like a million u/s and appointments. Yes that part of it was very verystressful. Prior to getting the dx I just felt a lot of cramps and abdominal pain. Hang in there, you are almost at the finish line. I am so excited for you. Can't wait to meet your little man.Sasha@ Blyssfulhealthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645600854443758785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605290941469070740.post-89567679715319653202009-11-24T01:40:44.383-05:002009-11-24T01:40:44.383-05:00Luke was our third baby.

But he was NEVER still, which I had no idea was a sign until well after his birth, and I remember sitting on the side of our bed one night saying to my husband "He is alright isn't he?" because he was just so active. The midwife sometimes had to sort of 'corner' him to get a heart beat because he was flipping around like a tadpole in there :) Needless to say, he hasn't stopped since. But other than that there were no signs and it was a huge shock. AND we had a detailed 3D scan at around 36 weeks which was lovely, and they got a great shot of his face along with all the rest and still had no idea!<br />By the way, is there a reason you ask?...Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09066280828048359936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605290941469070740.post-2867623712496325982009-11-24T01:00:43.316-05:002009-11-24T01:00:43.316-05:00I had no clue what so ever.

But then, Charlie, despite having Down Syndrome, was a very healthy baby who did great during birth, and would have done great at a home birth I am sure. It was my second son, who was born at home, that needed a little help with the whole breathing thing when he was born. But, the midwives are equipped for that!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16979494101351514296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605290941469070740.post-13099057782292842572009-11-23T23:32:35.530-05:002009-11-23T23:32:35.530-05:00I knew something was "off".
