One of the very sad things about leaving Seattle during this pregnancy was having to leave behind our midwife Cindie. We love her very much and I've had to work hard at letting go of my desire to have her at our birth. She is kind and wise and knows a lot about natural preventative remedies. So, she sent us off to St. Louis with a few such suggestions, one of which was to drink lots of raspberry leaf tea. It helps the uterus in many ways which I don't have the expertise to go into here, but you can look it up if you are interested!
Today as I am celebrating using up an entire pound of rasberry leaf tea during this pregnancy ! (which, if you know how light the stuff is, is a LOT of rasberry leaf tea) 
As I made this pot of tea with the end of the bag, I thought "Cindie would be so proud of me!"--a happy thought to have in sunshiny morning before breakfast.

Oh I am so glad! I think it does work miracles. But we can compare notes at a later date!
Miss you! Have a cup of tea for me :)

Are you using a midwife in St. Louis? I'm curious about the natural childbirth community there, as I will hopefully have a few more babies, probably in St. Louis. Which hospital are you using? Oh, it's so exciting...and we are praying for all three of you!!!
Hurray for tea! Praying for you guys right now!!!
