Pix from the first homebirth gathering in November, 2004

Handmade, one of a kind, handstitched bags for dopplers, fetoscopes, bp cuffs - you name it!

(pix by Regan) We had a lovely gathering last Sunday. The babies that came have certainly grown! And we had some lovely mothers to be with us as well. We started off by lighting a candle and taking a moment to pause and remember all of you who couldn’t make it. Then we shared information with each other and wished Karen well as her due date was the next day. Debora, Joni, Tammi and Regan are missing from the pix.

In some countries, tetanus is prevented by burning of the umbilical cord instead of cutting it.
