I doubt they'll ever hear of my comments here but I do think they are over worked and therefore often on automatic pilot. The things I would have changed I never had the understanding or courage to address. Who knows they may have been very supportive. With what I know now, if I ended up in the hospital again, I would request, and demand even, some changes to the status quo - even little things like the rough handling all my kids got after they were born.<br><br>Also, for those of you worried about emergencies, we're 30 minutes from the hospital if we had to take a longer alternate route and we faced traffic (so that's the worst case scenerio). Realistically we could get there in 15-20 minutes, we'd have called ahead to make sure they were preparing for us. The emergency turn around time would be very comparable to that of the time it would take them to prepare for me even if I was in the hospital.

A couple of my friends are also planning one. If you have any questions about cloth diapering, let me know. We CD'd Addy from birth to potty training. We will be CD the new LO as well. Good luck with it, it is a great choice. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
