Hello from Indonesia

I know I had promised blogging from Indonesia, but I've had no time! I've been here almost 6 weeks and am waiting on birth # 30 right now. I don't know how I will share about my time here - some is so hard to put into words, some so personal, and how to fit 6 weeks of crazy living onto a few posts? Thankfully I did some journaling while waiting during births so I can reconstruct some of that later. There is a "no blogging" clause from the clinic so I'll have to be careful with details as well.

We'll be returning to Bangkok on Friday and then the blogging can start! I'm thinking of sharing by category, such as prenatal clinics, twin experience, life in Indonesia, difficult births, midwife certification, and more.

And we are planning now on how to come back in a year or two! A 4-hour plane ride and a cheap place to live makes it totally possible. My preceptor/supervising midwife is amazing and would love for me to come back. And of course we've made many new friends along the way.
