Kevin and I decided to stay in and watch a movie before the ball dropped. So, we have taken a liken to the "FREE" movies you can watch instantly on Netflix. We watched a doctumentary on the food additives and other stuff. I think it was called The Beautiful Truth. Pretty good. I think we are going to order the book from the doctor who was talked about in the movie. Then we took a break and with 1 1/2 hours until the ball dropped, we decided to watch another movie.
Earlier in the night while browsing through the instant play movies, I came upon the one that Ricki Lake produced. I know it sounds corny but I heard it was supposed to be really good. The Business of Being Born it's called. So, at midnight we were watching a baby come into the world. It was a rather interesting film. Kevin now thinks that he has to get all of his fillings out and we can't have our baby in the hospital...all after watching these two films. Both were enlightening. That's why we love to watch documentaries. Side bar: we didn't watch the ball drop but we did do the New Years kiss at 12. :-)
I want to state that after watching the Ricki Lake film, I do know more of what I am going to be prepared for at the hospital. I think Kevin does too and I also know what I am going to discuss beforehand with the doctors and how to get my needs and feelings across to them now. I have a birth plan and they have all read it but I want to make sure that they "really" understand our goal for this birth. God willing and us praying, we will be able to have our natural childbirth, complication free this time.
Only time will tell now what will be. I'm almost 37 weeks, full term! I'm getting excited and anxious wondering how this will actually happen. I'm relying on my faith in God that it will all work out just as it should. I know it will, even if what we want isn't in the cards. But a little prayer never hurt anyone (I hope!).
