I'm bragging

Though my husband will think this is blasphemy, Mister Rogers was just not that entertaining this morning. So, for the second post this morning, I simply leave you with a quote. After a thrilling conversation with a woman last weekend at a baby shower, I got the itch to read Ina May's "Guide to Childbirth" again. I loved this book when I read it before Ceilidh was born, and I wanted to reread it with a more "experienced" outlook. Andrew and I have a few theories about labor and delivery for someone who has lost a previous child, especially if the baby was born not living. More on that later....

One of my favorite all-time quotes: "There is no other organ quite like the uterus. If men had such an organ, they would brag about it. So should we."

And brag you should! There is no one I know who is better at birthing and raising babies than you!
