Me & My SO went to our first appointment at the Birth Center. it was BitterSweet... and here's why...
I was told that because my BMI was over 35 that I am not allowed per the SC DHEC regulations to give birth in the Birthing Center... which means no water birth for me & my first baby, it took everything in me not to cry in front of her, I've known for over 10yrs that this is what I wanted and how I wanted to do it, and this is the only place in the area to do it :( super sad face!!!
but on a lighter note... WE GOT TO SEE BABY FOR THE FIRST TIME YESTERDAY! I'm 14weeks, so we waited a long time (9weeks) to finally be able to see our Baby (whom we are so sure is a girl); it was so magical, I understand now why women cry, I teared up but told myself not to cry... as u can see Ima cry baby lol. and the baby was even moving for us too, it was the most perfect moment in my life... so far! <3
