Home birth is less expensive now and reduces costs to our health care system in the long run. Yay TEAM > Bleughvomitdefecatediedead.

I felt sick to my stomach. I mean personally, beyond my csection excluding me I have a normal body temp of 36.9. It takes very farking little to shoot it up to INFECTION LEVEL! With my csection it went to a staggering 40 but funnily enough no infection! Just knobs creating body stress by intervening. Thank you Janet for dissecting this so well. I will direct friends and family to your blog to get the real lowdown on how our government is working towards a solution. And nice you are out of the closet!

It will be interesting to see what the new "guidelines" do since one would have to suspect they'd be more forceful than these or why bother inventing them, right? *headdesk* You’re welcome.
