Guest guest Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Thanks Sheila:-). Yep, I'm beyond ambivalent for those precise reasons, though I affirm that my bee-bee(s) will be perfectly fine. I'm going along with doc's plan, in the spirit of cooperation, mutual respect, & communication. I sprung my unconventional birth plan on one of the OB's & he's granting me AUTONOMY, yay!!! Especially when I assured him I'm a firm believer in informed consent, he loved that! (Do I have to act like a paralegal 24 hours a day? lol). Thank you for being here for this worried (& excited) 1st timer, & for the rest of us.
