The fact that you have a healthy baby doesn't negate your desire to have experienced natural birth again. This is so common for many women and the automatic response it "but you have a healthy baby, be grateful for that". It's normal to feel robbed of the experience and it's ok to grieve what you missed out on - especially because you know what it can be like. Don't feel bad for feeling the way you do. They are totally valid feelings and your experience after the caesar has been anything but easy.

Don't be silly!!!! That isn't what I was saying. All I'm saying is that I know that it looks different from the outside from how it feels on the inside. The mom who had a caesar for pre-eclampsia last week had no choice but to have a caesar, but she feels like a failure even though logically it doesn't make sense. Her husband just can't get it. Birth is so emotional and often irrational

Put the thorny branch away!

Bathroom needs doing etc etc, but i would do it but i dont know how long im going to be here!

Well said Trin..April, I also felt rather disappointed and numb after my birth experience..like it happened to someone else. It was so far removed from what I'd imagined and hoped for. I was still very grateful for the intervention though otherwise the outcome could have been very different but I understand how you feel

Anyone seen this information coming out regarding vitamin D for babies 6 months-5 years? They are still researching I believe but apparently rickets is on the increase caused by vit D deficiency.

There is a question around whether we are using too much sunscreen on our children now which is partly to blame for vitamin D deficiency...can't win eh?

Off to swimming with OH and Cara

Later lovelies

I saw this at the weekend. Do you give Cara vitamins? My HV said i should give Lyra vitamin drops now she's 6 months.
