Clever girl

I can't believe there is only about ten weeks left until our baby girl comes. Being this nervous and exited at the same time is very confusing.

My 3 year old very wisely and confidently asked me a favor today. That when I birth her little sister I must please do so sitting down, cause she didn't have a very good view when I birthed her brother on my knees. And she wants to make sure all babies come out head first and is up side down when inside a mommy.

Hmmm think she knows way too much about birth. She is so smart and such a special girl.

Ciane is also growing up way too fast. My baby will soon be the big brother!

I am so very blessed to be in such a wonderful place and time in my life. Yes I have my off days but I know that this is where I belong.

Breast feeding is natural not normal

In our life time there are so many different parenting styles.   We all do what we think is right, or what others pressure us to do.   What might be ‘normal’ to me, can sound strange to you.   For me it is normal for my children to sleep in bed with me.   For you it might be normal to keep the bed restricted to mommy and daddy.   For me it is normal to do baby led weaning, for you it is normal to give baby cereal at 4 months because the clinic sister said so. The statement I would like to make today is that breast feeding has nothing to do with what you think is normal or not.   It should be seen as a natural step following birth.   I think allot of mothers are afraid of being labeled or pushed under a certain parenting style and then choose to not breast feed.   SA’s breastfeeding statistics are shocking.   And because only 1 in 3 women really can’t breast feed we are obviously looking at a bigger problem.   Information and sup...

The birth of Carmin Callisa (rewrite)

Carmin Callisa 19 December 2013 Unplanned planned assisted birth at home The first time I wrote this story wasn't very good. I think I was a little too negative to an overall positive birthing experience. Both my other births went smooth and quick in their own way. And I was about to experience something totally different than what I expected. Ciane (baby nr 2) was 4 months old, exclusively breastfed, when we found out I was pregnant. I have to share this we were away for the weekend with my parents and my oldest daughter, then 3 told my mother she is going to have a baby sister named Callisa. We all laughed and joked until I started getting sick on the Monday .. like morning sickness sick. So I had a three year old and a basically newborn, needless to say my pregnancy was a little more stressed and busy as apposed to the 9 months I basically spent in bed with the others. We decided we are going to have an unassisted home birth. We know the drill. Until w...

Awesome news

. God wants to use me to help other woman and children, and I am reporting for duty. I feel so blessed and know God has a huge plan for us. At first I was shocked now I am over joyed!!! I am about 5 weeks pregnant with my third baby.  Every child is a huge gift from God.  I feel so honored to be given this huge responsibility.  I make so many mistakes every day but I know that He will always pick me up and put me back on track. I did not mention God in any of my previous posts, I thought i would keep religion out of it and just speak in general.  But I was wrong to do so, cause whithout his mercy I am nothing and I'm capable of nothing. My God is an awesome God and I need to speak up.
