I'm Currently Feeling:  | AHH.
I don't know if this is true, but my friend who's training to be a Midwife reckons people have to give birth naked now? WHAT? That can't be true surely? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I know over here you are not naked. I was in the delivery room with my friend, and she was dressed in one of those hospital gowns. That would be very uncomfortable...and cold. I would refuse! They cant MAKE you be naked...can they??? |

| Hmmm, this really isn't true. It's a matter of choice. Obviously if you want to be naked then I'm sure that's fine, but it would be very cold. I really can't imagine giving birth in the middle of December with NOTHING on. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Shes only been doing midwifery since September and it's really starting to bug me. She thinks she knows everything. She's constantly worrying me. Sure midwives are meant to do the oposite? If she doesn't stop soon I'm gonna kick off, I know it! |

| I can only imagine that she thinks she's helping. That's one of the things you get almost constantly when you're pregnant though - people always offering their own advice and opinions, even when you don't want them. It's hard to be polite about it all the time. |

I'm Currently Feeling: |  Just don't try to listen to too much that she says, and if she gets really bad, let her know. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | She was poking about in my belly the other day pretending she knew what she was doing. Of course, I knew she was lying. She sed she felt my uterus but even qualified midwives can't to that yet. She made me feel awfully sick too. I'm gonna have to put my foot down! |

| Yeah, sometimes you just can't keep being polite about it. If it's causing you to worry unnecessarily then that obviously isn't good. I hate how everyone feels qualified to give you their advice, even if they've absolutely no experience of pregnancy. |
