Beat Box

Today SJ and I went to a midwife. If you’ve been reading SJ’s Blog you already know that we had the “NASCAR” experience at our OBGYN. Which prompted us to go-to the midwife. It was great! The midwife office has a similar office as the doctor’s office, same tables, scales, equipment etc. the midwife asked all of the same questions…(this is where the difference comes in…) the midwife listened to the answers. Really, SJ said something about poly blah blah cysts and she spouted out something about diabetes. Which was fascinating because the Nurse Practitioner never told us such things. She also told us about flax seed oil and gave us a reading list of books. It was totally cool. She said something about later on drinking teas and our ears perked up. It was great! But the coolest thing ever was the heart beat. At the very end she said…hey you wanna hear the baby’s! Hell yeah. We held our breathe as the Midwife searched for the heartbeat and we heard SJ and the baby’s placenta and then out of nowhere.. squish squish squish heart beat.
