Homebirth Stories – Eden’s Birth Part I (For another version of this story click here.)
Two nights before my due date, I was having contractions and they were coming close, but I knew it wasn’t labor. However, my whole pregnancy I had been worried that the midwife would not make it to my [...]
One of the ways I come out of my postpartum fog is by getting out of the house and traveling. After having my second child and two weeks later an appendectomy I had cabin fever BAD as did the rest of my family. One particular weekend in January it was oddly warm and we decided to [...]
Just a little bit of encouragement for the weary mom. ♥

Last weekend my husband and I went away for a weekend. By ourselves. Without our son. For three days.
