Turns out that the BEST time to tell your doctor you don't want an I.V., constant heart monitor, cervical checks, episiotomy, or his hands anywhere near the cave in which your baby has been hibernating for the past 40 weeks is when he is in the middle of "delivering" three different babies up in the hospital and one is breech.
If you catch him in the middle of all of that comotion...where he only really has like 3 minutes to complete your exam (where he will tell you that you are dilated to a ONE)...than he will likely not have time to tell you of all the risks and inconveniences of your preferences to birth naturally.
It was that easy :)
"Just type it all up and bring it in next visit and I'll put it in your file", he says.
And so we shall.
In other news: BTK and I forgot to call his mom yesterday on her BIRTHDAY...
It was about 5am this morning when I remembered. I was on the couch and I kinda woke up to that thought and so I called into bedroom to BTK and said, "Hey BTK, you know what yesterday was?!"
And he called back, "garbage and recycling?"
...and I said, "no...it was the 15th!"
"My mom's birthday!"
"yeah"...
And with that, we went back to sleep.
I have forgotten many birthdays over the years and though I'm slowly getting better at remembering, I'm sure I'll still forget many more.
We love you Mom C. !!!!!! Happy Birthday :)

Ha! If I were ever to do this again (which I won't because I'm just too darned old), I'd have to remember that!
