Re:Beyoncé...but not exactly about her music. I have yet to listen to the new album, butall I'm seeing is "Becky with the good hair" & all the names being dragged through the mud. Not saying the other woman is blameless, but you know who should be getting most of the heat?? Freaking JAY Z!!! You know, the guy who cheated on his wife...
So being as obsessed with both bey and jay as I am... I don't think he cheated. At first I did, but now I find it odd that 1) he would allow her to record something so personal when they both are private and 2) it is just a story to make money for Tidal since it is bombing.
Although Rachel Roy didn't do anyone any favors with her tweet. And my one dress by her is hitting the donation bag now!

So what was the Solange/elevator episode about? I read on some (highly credible, if course) gossip website that Jay was cozying up to Rachel at that gala. That elevator episode couldn't have been for show...
I totally get where you are coming from on this just wanted to offer a little from the other side. I started out with an OB, wasn't thrilled with the care I was receiving, and switched to a midwife. It was like night and day! Also, I haven't had to deal with any stresses about being able to continue with them (in the event of a complication) because they are affiliated with Yale Hospital and my birth center is actually just a floor in the hospital, so it ended up being the best of both worlds. I am getting my granola, low intervention birth with some of the best docs in the NE just a few floors away. I'm not sure how common this sort of setup is unfortunately!
That really is a great set-up! I hope your delivery goes smoothly - in the birth center of course!
I was really considering a free standing midwifery practice; that is until I got pregnant with twins. On the bright side, having worked as an OB nurse, I absolutely knew which OB practice to choose. The twins ended up being delivered by MFM due to prematurity and complications, but I'm scheduled to deliver with my practice this time around!!

Also...it may be because I had such a bad experience, but I cringe when I see people wanting to be induced. All I can think of is...stop! You have no idea what you are wishing on yourself!!!
(But for all of you that have to have one...it'll be fine!!!)
I'd rather be induced than have a c-section again, but yeah so rather go into spontaneous labour first. But if that doesn't happen, please induce me.

True... I'm trying to give my boy the benefit of the doubt! And just so Rachel knows her hair ain't that good.
I also agree that we need to keep this board active. I have been told time and time again that while having a newborn is magical, it can also be alienating. Yes, friends and family can help, but I suspect having this online community will probably be helpful, too. (I realize this convo is happening in the UO thread, but I sincerely hope it is not an UO!)
I gotta say, my BMB from DS1 migrated to Facebook, and it's been a (mostly) positive experience. There was some drama a few months in, and some people split off to form smaller groups, but since then the smaller group I stayed with has become my online tribe.
