home birth

We have discussed having one last child. We have a very small window of oportunity to take but it is there just the same. I am on a large families site where one of our ladies gave birth to two of her children at home. I find it very inspiring. I would love to do this. I am only having one more child and have always wanted to do this. I found a woman on the web, a midwife/doula who serves our area. If I do get pregnant, I really want to see what I would need to do to do this. I really don't care to give birth in a hospital again. Although, to get a tubal, I need to go in. Maybe I can talk to my doctor about going in later to have it done. I don't know...

My weightloss is going well. I am down by two more pounds in two weeks. I am losing about a pound a week now. The funny thing is all I have done is watch what I eat and my portions. I think the biggest thing is moving off base. We have a McDonalds on base and that was our one place to go and eat if there wasn't anything to eat at the house. You know, I am almost 30 pounds under what I was at last year. Yes, it is slow and it really isn't that much but you know what? It is permanant!!! I go up during the week of my period but it usually drops back down AND goes under what I was at before that week! Now I just need to get my butt in gear and get moving!! It has just been so hectic the past oh, MONTH! Michael has been giving me crap about not going. He loves it! I should go today, no matter what. I just have to make sure my Ipod is charged.
