Baby Dobrowolski!

I am getting increasing excited/nervous for august and giving birth. We had our hospital visit on Thursday and it was wonderful. Our hospital is everything I could ask for in a hospital and more. Since we are with the midwife practice they do everything to ensure you get what you want, which for me means a natural birth. There is no "it's 8pm and im tired and want to get home so we're going to induce you so I can go to bed." They let your body do what is natural. 

There are so many benefits to this hospital that I love! I am allowed to labor in the shower, walk throughout labor (not hooked up to a fetal heart monitor the whole time), give birth in any position that's comfortable for me, delay the cutting of the cord, and the baby will never be taken away from me! I love that they go by the studies that say baby will be kept the warmest through skin to skin contact on the mothers chest, rather than under a heat lamp. 

Although I am still a bit nervous for this whole process, visiting the hospital energized me and has given me an excitement for this journey.
