YEEHAW!!! Beautiful Evangeline! We are all so excited for you to arrive! P.S. Mary Brigid, I believe I need to give you my unasked for two cents regarding the Bradley Method. I talked with Tess Barber, and although we had some rather awful teachers, I personally liked the Bradley approach to childbirth. But there are so many good approaches out there that I know you'll be fine ... but I still need to send you an email sometime.
I think my "distaste" for the Bradley method was a little confusing (as so much of what I say nowadays is, haha!)...I was referring more to the strange manner of teaching the class (women empowerment, strange and embarrassing positioning, birth reenactments) that is so predominant (at least, this is what my internet reviews tell me...). I think the method itself is probably fine and very instructive, I just am not very drawn to classes that have me "pretend I'm giving birth" haha! I am going to get the new book, probably though, for some extra reading!
My beautiful, beautiful baby granddaughter.
