you guys are definateley on the right track and I think the buiz of bein born is a very informative doco on how you guys in America dont get alot of choice on what you want for your baby.Were from New Zealand and when we watched it we were like what??! they have to go through alot of bullshit just to have a beautiful baby boy or girl far out.

It’s wonderful that you guys are so aware and are researching everthing! I know I just want to find out all I can about birth and my baby’s health and I’m really surprised when many people aren’t doing that.
Best of luck with everything! I know you’re going to have a wonderful labor and birth!!

“Exemption Forms” that’s cool…thanks for your response.

I dont want 2 vaccinate my baby @ all, but after hearing you say it i guess I should look up info on the shots that they give newborns…I’m going 2 school 4 early childhood management and just learned last week that there are exemption forms if your child isn’t vaccinated. (I’m in FLA) Anywhoo I pray that all will go well w/ your birth & new family! Bless God

Honestly, I respect your decision to go natural because I had my daughter almost 6 years ago & I still feel some of the aftermaths of the epidural & the c-section. Wishing you the best of luck!
