Dear Everyone I Scared By Having My Baby At Home,
(which is pretty much all of you as I’m aware)
I just wanted to let you know that I still eat McDonalds fries and watch too much TV. It’s still me. Don’t worry.
Love,
The Same Kelsey Who Just Happened To Have Her Baby In Her Front Room
P.S. My dad uses the term “hippie” to his friends behind my back and “pioneer” to my face. You know, like pioneers who used to have their babies at home because there was no hospital. Feel free to use either to my face or behind my back.
actually, you've just made me think about doing it myself. But, I know that I would survive without an epidural, but I am not sure that I want to. It would be so nice though… to just be around your stuff and not have to go anywhere, and to not have people butting in trying to tell you what to do with your baby.
I think I will use the word "superhero".
Yeah, you are a Hippie Pioneer Superhero with a lot of blind faith. You go girl!!!
I'm sorry anyone that got "scared" by this shouldn't be just think about how the human race survived without modern medicine. Babies being born (well I really can't says for sure, but from what I have been taught) in dark, dirty, diseased caves, on animal skins that were definitely not properly disinfected or sanitized. When humans were mostly nomadic how many babies popped out as they were walking in the middle of a mountain/forest trail. Plus hospitals are full of germs, and diseases! You go girl, I call you just a good mom K.
