A new study indicates a more normal gastrointestinal tract for C-Section birthed babies is possible.
...In the study, babies that were born via C-Section were swabbed with their mother’s vaginal bacteria after it was born. A gauze was placed in mom’s vagina for an hour prior to the C-Section then this gauze was rubbed on baby after it was born...
No baby yet, and, unfortunately, I'm dwelling on that.
...Even with all the “wisdom” read of how to naturally induce labor, I have decided to not push my body. I am taking time to rest, and walk as much as I can. I am listening to my midwife and allowing her to be my doctor rather than trying to doctor myself...
Wishing you all the best for 2016.
...I know in a few weeks my body is going to change yet again. The female breasts become milk making machines, the abdomen is forever altered, and the kicking/hiccups/movements will no longer be something that I feel from the inside...
