I have been reading more and more about Waldorf Education as Henry gets older. As much as I love the child-led education of unschooling, I really really like the Waldorf philosophy of learning through play and helping children develop a lifelong love of learning for learning's sake. I spent way.too.much.time clicking through Waldorf minded mamas' links about their nature tables at The Magic Onions weekly Friday link-up.
LOVE this accidental unnasisted homebirth story on Mama Birth's blog. This mama cracks me up and I love the way she so fully trusted her body even after a birth center transfer turned c-section with her first baby.
Did you know ACOG states that babies are over-due *after* 42 weeks? If baby is healthy and mama is healthy, there is no need to be pushed into an early induction. Let your baby choose it's own birthday!
I oogled over this picture of a baby being born breech for a solid 10 minutes.
I am very excited about watching the play "Birth" via webcast tomorrow night. I am a proud supporter of an organization with a mission like this: BOLD is a community who passionately believe childbirth is normal and that when we trust birth pregnant mothers and their babies are honored. We envision a world where there is no violence or coercion of pregnant mothers; where each mother can have the birth she wants.
Got any links I need to read?
