Ok I totally forgot to post some of our professional maternity pics by Sharon Ellman!

Home Birth

Throughout the pregnancy Corey and I have discussed with our midwife Sarah Jones the pros and cons of a birth center birth compared to a home birth. At about 6 months we made a very educated decision to have a home birth. It was the most amazing decision I personally have ever made I never feared the "what if" I knew God was with us when we made the decision and he would be there when we followed through with our hearts desire. That being said you will definitley want to read the next post it is about the entire labor and delivery it may be graphic for some but if you have any desire to do a natural child birth at home this is a very positive experience to read about.

Carving pumpkins

Sunday October 24th we carved pumpkins: Corey Carved a C an A an E and a M for Corey Anjel Emma McGeorge
I wasnt feeling well so I carved BOO it was easy I did it without a stencil
then the others are Garys Seanas and Brendas.
That night we left Brendas around 8:30p I was having braxton hicks so we loaded up Mayer and headed to the house, that past Friday was my last day at work, Corey knew I would be spending alot of time in bed after Emma came so he went ahead and moved the spare TV into our bedroom w/ the DVD player. Sweet!

Pregnancy Scare I think NOT!!!

On October 6th we had a second sonogram (at Mimis request) w/ Dr. Clark OBGYN He proceeded to tell us that Emma was under weight @ 5.4lbs and that her abdomen was not progressing like the rest of her body. We were told that if I was DR. Clarks patient he would take Emma by C-section that very next week which would make me @ 37 weeks. To me that did not make any sense. I believe babies comes when they are ready and if she isn't done growing why would you take her out pump her full of drugs to help her grow I mean my body will give her everything she needs God made it that way for a reason. I never had a doubt that she was ok but I wanted to talk to my midwife about it for sure. We discussed what Dr. Clark had said and Sarah recommended a third sonogram to settle everyones mind we did not go back to Dr. Clark. We went to a place that only does sonograms, my mom, Corey and Sarah came to the appointment with me. It turns out Emma is perfect she may be a bit small but the technician thought maybe my due date is off so they moved it to November 8th, instead of October 28th. I said so what your telling me is I'm not gonna have a huge baby? SWEET I mean I am doing this labor thing all natural no epidural and No I'm not CRAZY I'm EDUCATED! I believe my body is designed to labor this way as many women before me have done it! Corey and I left this appointment with a weight lifted off our shoulders we both knew God was in control of this pregnancy and he was taking care of our little girl ever step of the way.
