Took three weeks off for the holidays and it’s already half over!!!
Keeping busy with a few things. Numero Uno priority was researching baby stuff (of course). Here are a few references that I’ve landed on so far:
- Co-sleeping- excellent reference website: http://cosleeping.nd.edu/frequently-asked-questions/). Not commonly practiced in Western countries.
- Hyponobirthing. Purchased hyponobirthing labor CD by Michelle Leclaire; I listen to it EVERY night and I’ve had amazing uninterrupted sleeps since!
- General guidance info on labour, pregnancy, postpartum, etc- I recommend this book: “Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Newborn” http://www.pcnguide.com/
- Breastfeeding- heard that this Dr. Jack Newman was the guru of breastfeeding even though he’s a man: http://www.nbci.ca/
Also got my hospital and baby bags (car seat still needs to be bought) packed. Also packed Timmy’s swimming trunks so he can climb in the tub/shower with me ;0) Unfortunately the Royal Alex hospital doesn’t have a birthing tub, but the hospital birthing room itself is very spacious and clean.
