A Visitor's Guide to Accessible Cape Town
Marisah Smith
Cape Town can, with some careful planning, deliver a really enjoyable holiday experience for visitors with special access needs. Whilst we have some distance to go to being a completely Universally Accessible (UA) destination, awareness is on the rise and with it the number of improvements made to our city.

Wine canapés and French words in Cape Town's Constantia Winelands
And there's me thinking I'd seen all the beautiful wine farms this amazing city of Cape Town has to offer. Think again Diva. Beau Constantia est arrivé (by the way, when I see French words like 'beau' and ' pas de nom', I can't help but throw my French about a bit).
#Instagram Diary: Groote Post, Groote Delight
Monday 23 September, 2013, saw me heading out of the Mother City along the West Coast road and bouncing in a mini van through the veld towards the Darling Hills where, between the Kapokberg on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other, lies a gem of a wine farm called Groote Post.
My Montagu Adventure on Instagram
Route 62 is one of the most stunning drives in the Western Cape, possibly in the whole of South Africa, and it's one of my favourites. It leads to some of the most picturesque towns and villages in the province, like Montagu.

Im thinking you may have a fuel delivery issue but without more trouble shooting this is only a guess.

The battery is fine, I tested it. It is only a year old. I can pull a plug and check for spark correct? Is there a port to check for fuel pressure? I thought maybe cap and rotor, but when I replaced intake gaskets this spring they looked fine. I have replaced the fuel filter last year too. Thanks for the responces. please keep them coming if you think of something else. I was hoping it was something prone to the truck. BTW it has 178k miles.
10-19-2013, 07:56 PM #6There should be a valve on the fuel line near the distributor where you can check the fuel pressure. I think normal pressure is high 50's to 60, but don't quote me on it.

How long did it run when you said it started and died? Did it run rough for a few minutes or did it run and die quickly?
How many miles? Changed anything like a fuel filter recently?

10-19-2013, 08:10 PM #8Yea, you should have a port where described for the fuel line.
Yes by all means check spark, pull 1 out, anyone, and check
could still be the fuel filter but checking fuel pressure is a good troubleshooting technique.
Clogged fuel filter will normally allow some pressure to bleed through.

When I went out to leave it cranked over, but would not start. After a while of sitting, it finally did start. It sounded like it was running on 4 cylinders and only ran about 10 seconds before it died. Went to restart and it did the same thing. Pumping the accel. did nothing. Have no idea why it would do this all of a sudden. It gave no warnings, nor did I notice anything out of the ordinary the whole time I drove it lately. I did pull 1 plug. The wire pulled out of the boot. Now I have to fix that as well or replace the wire. The plug did look good though.

Generally speaking, miniskirts look good only on people with minihips. That's why we were thrilled to see full skirts going up and down the runway at Honor. In this video, we interview designer Giovanna Randall about her feminine, flouncy looks.

It seems like being one of the boys could be fun: You'd drink a lot of beer, play Fantasy Football, and gain valuable insight into the male psyche. But could it hinder your chances of meeting guys outside the circle? In this Ask the Office Guy, Dan gives his honest opinion.

He was clever over email and had a sexy phone voice. A Google image search revealed a brown-eyed, handsome man. So when he showed up looking like Jon Gosselin, you were caught off guard. In this Ask the Office Guy, Dan decides whether you should go on a second date or call it quits.
We're not sure what the shoes looked like that inspired this reader from Pound Ridge, N.Y., to write in, but we're imagining neon yellow lace-up Crocs. Deal breaker? Dan talks through the issue in this Ask the Office Guy.

High school prom: CK One. Trip to Italy: au naturel. Major lapse in judgment: Axe.
Since a smell can bring back memories more vividly than pictures, why leave it to chance? In today's video, Steven Gontarski of Los Angeles-based perfume store Lucky Scent, has tips for finding your perfect fragrance — from where and how to spray it to how to decide what's you.
If you're like us, you'll want to start spritzing away. Nose around Lucky Scent's site — which carries tons of hard-to-find brands — and choose a few to try (samples are just $3-$5).
It's about more than just common scents.
To shop and order samples, go to luckyscent.com. Since Gontarski talks about perfumes so eloquently, we asked him to tell us about his favorite seven fragrances (we're now hooked on the Peau de Peche and At the Beach 1966).
On a scale of handyman aptitude, we're closer to Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor (Super Gluing his fingers together) than Bob Vila.
But we still know our way around nuts and bolts, thanks to Home from the Hardware Store, a new book with foolproof instructions for DIY home decor — from chandeliers to table runners — made with items you can find at your local Home Depot or Ace.
In today's videos, Brooklyn-based co-author Stephen Antonson showed us two projects: a ridiculously simple candelabra made of inexpensive plumbing parts (above) and how to turn tubes into modern, round shelving units. The former takes literally five minutes; the latter, maybe an hour.
No Al Borland required.
To buy a copy of Home from the Hardware Store, go to amazon.com.
When Stephen Antonson, co-author of Home from the Hardware Store, told us we'd need a saw to make modern tube shelves, we thought two things: (1) There goes a finger and (2) Who has a saw? The good news: The production was incredibly easy (no ER visits to report), and a handsaw is around $15 at your local hardware store.
"Did you just get back from vacation?"
Nope (we wish). Instead, we had a lesson in DIY spray tanning from bronzing expert Meredith Fish, founder of Brownberry in Manhattan. In today's videos, she has tips for doing your face (above) and body — including how to avoid dreaded streaks on hands and feet.
Fish recommends using an alcohol-free tanner — and always starting with a lighter shade and testing it on a small patch of unseen skin beforehand. Make a mistake? Don't worry: She also shows us her tried-and-true method for getting rid of unwanted splotches.
Follow her instructions and you'll go from pasty to bronzed in just a few hours.
Much faster and cheaper than a trip to Brazil.
For more information on Brownberry, go to brownberrynyc.com.
If you've been through a rough winter, it's likely your legs, arms, stomach, and back haven't seen the light of day for ages. Don't be self-conscious to show skin again: Banish the pale with a DIY spray tan. In this video, bronzing expert Meredith Fish explains the best way to give yourself a glow.
Want more tips? Check out our videos on DIY spray tanning your face and how to remove it if you make a mistake. For more information on Meredith Fish, go to brownberrynyc.com.
We've all seen it: Perfectly tan people wearing abnormally long sleeves — even in summer — to cover up streaky, orange hands. Thankfully, there's a better way. In this video, bronzing expert Meredith Fish reveals her tried-and-true method for getting rid of self-tanner mistakes.
Want more tips? Check out our videos on DIY spray tanning for your face and body. For more information on Meredith Fish, go to brownberrynyc.com.
When we told our assistant editor Emily she'd be modeling in a video showcasing hair feathers, she was reluctant. "I don't want to look like David Cassidy circa 1973," she said.
We're not talking about hair feathering: These are extensions made of rooster plumes, a bohemian-inspired trend that's taking flight this season.
Accessories designer Wendy Nichol offers the service at her Soho shop using ethically sourced feathers from a small farm. In ten minutes, she'll help you decide where they should go and attach them using a silicone-lined clamp that won't rip your hair. Once in, they last up to six weeks — and you can wash, dry, and curl them as you please.
The extensions come in an array of colors, from bright blue to natural-looking brown. Nichol warns, however, that people who opt for subtler hues often come back requesting bolder ones.
It's a surefire way to, c'mon, get happy.
Available at Wendy Nichol, 147 Sullivan Street, between Houston and Prince Streets (212-431-4171 or wendynicholnyc.com), $45. An appointment is recommended.
Usually, we're content not knowing what goes on behind closed doors (they're shut for a reason).
Except when it comes to New York Fashion Week. The backstage madness is half the appeal, especially since the manicurists, hairstylists, and makeup artists are the best in the biz.
So we elbowed our way back — amid slews of photogs, models, and publicists — to see what beauty trends might emerge next season. We talked nails at Alexander Wang (above), hair at Behnaz Sarafpour, and makeup and hair at Marc Jacobs.
Though the product and stylist recommendations are indispensable, we admit the dominatrix-inspired hair at Marc might be more on the conceptual side.
But that doesn't mean you can't try it in private. Want to know what else is in? Check out our spring trends video (starring designers and store owners) and visit The Dossier for ongoing show coverage.
Pretty, natural-looking curls — not ringlets — were the look at Behnaz Sarafpour's fall/winter 2011 show. In this video, Bumble and Bumble stylist Laurent Philippon demonstrates his technique for getting the hairstyle just right.
For more beauty tips, watch our backstage videos on hair and makeup at Marc Jacobs and nails at Alexander Wang.
Nana, who's been wearing the same Avon blush since 1963, may not seem like the most fashion-forward lady. But designer Marc Jacobs and makeup artist François Nars beg to differ. In this video, Nars talks us through Jacobs's granny-inspired fall/winter 2011 look.
For more beauty tips, watch our backstage videos on hair at Marc Jacobs, hair at Behnaz Sarafpour, and nails at Alexander Wang.
Man, this hairstyle is tight. No, literally: Mononymous Redken stylist Guido slicked models' locks back into taut, dominatrix-inspired ponytails for the fall/winter Marc Jacobs show on Monday. In this video, he describes the process and why he likes the look.
For more beauty tips, watch our backstage videos on makeup at Marc Jacobs, hair at Behnaz Sarafpour, and nails at Alexander Wang.
A wall of 20-degree days and sidewalk perma-sludge make it hard to imagine life without galoshes and sleeping bag-style overcoats.
Which makes dreaming of spring fashion all the more irresistible. So, in today's video, we asked nine designers and store owners to tell us their must-haves for the coming season — from head-to-toe white to bold prints.
Our panel: Lizzie and Kathryn Fortunato, Erin Beatty at Suno, Isaac Mizrahi, Jen Mankins at Bird, Kyung Lee at Albertine, Neil Blumenthal at Warby Parker Eyewear, Nicholas Kunz of Nicholas K, Mara Hoffman, and Morgan Yakus and Karin Bereson at No. 6.
A fine group, indeed. And despite the variation in taste, we found there are a few core looks that will be ubiquitous this spring.
A scarf that covers the whole face is not one of them.
For more spring trend reports, bloggers' personal obsessions, and show coverage, check out our Fall 2011 Fashion Week site, launching today. Want to see the catwalk in person? Enter to win two tickets to designer Rebecca Minkoff's fall/winter 2011 show this Friday at Lincoln Center.
Love: Ain't it grand? Except when it's not — and you have to stay in bed, because small things (minivan commercials, the store being out of Cool Ranch Doritos, happy couples) make you sob.
To help us remember when it was all cupids and hearts, we enlisted the help of some children, all 5 to 8 years old. We asked them about everything from whom they love (and if they have boyfriends/girlfriends) to how to mend a broken heart.
One little girl, who was initially shy, boldly proclaimed she'd recently seen her parents kissing — on the lips. Another said she doesn't want to get married unless it's to her little brother.
Which should be enough to get us through Valentine's Day, with or without chips. Want another feel-good video? Here's one in which we asked people about what makes them happy.
If Old Man Winter were a real person, we'd have to defriend and unfollow him. Dude needs to chill with the snow and ice.
His one redeeming quality: Giving us an excuse to eat tomato soup and grilled cheese all the time (got to get warm somehow).
To help us retain body heat, we asked home chef Sarah Simmons for her best tomato soup recipe. Instead, she gave us five — all starting with the same mirepoix base, and ranging from a Thai coconut version (demo'ed in the video above) to a spicy, fire-roasted bisque. Visit our gallery for pictures, full recipes, and more videos.
The recipes are so easy and good we're almost sad to think about winter ending. Almost.
For more recipes and information on Simmons, go to sarahmcsimmons.com.
Special thanks: The Brooklyn Kitchen
When the wind chill is five below, any recipe with the word "fire" in it sounds like a plan. This spicy, smoky soup lives up to its name by warming you up (plus, it'll clear your sinuses right out). Visit our gallery for the full recipe and more video demos.
If you're sick (or just tired of being cold), this hearty, filling soup will provide some comfort. Though chef Sarah Simmons uses sweet potato and turnip in the video, feel free to substitute your favorite root veggies. And visit our gallery for the full recipe and more drool-inducing video demos.

text: I did what other reviewers said and only used 1 cup of broth, I added mushrooms, and used reduced-fat sour cream. I didn't have any shallots so I substituted for finely chopped onions. It was a delicious way to make a creamy sauce without a lot of fat. Next time though, I might even cut down on the liquid a little more.

Head out with confidence. With three levels of integrated signal technology - GPS positioning a powerful 406 MHz signal and 121.5 MHz homing capability - the ACR SARLink 406 MHz GPS Personal Locator Beacon quickly and accurately relays your position to a worldwide network of Search and Rescue satellites, reducing search time and increasing your chances of survival. It is reliable signaling technology that has saved more than 26,8000 lives since 1982
The SARLink broadcasts a unique registered distress that not only tells rescuers where you are, but who you are. The onboard GPS can fix your position to within 100 meters and then utilizes a powerful 406 MHz signal to relay your distress call to orbiting SAR satellites. As local Search and Rescue is deployed, a separate homing signal and integrated LED strobe light guide rescuers to your location.
The SARLink is light in weight and small enough to be easily carried in a pack or pocket by skiers, hikers, hunters, kayakers, climbers, pilots, snowmobilers or any other outdoor enthusiast. Performing a full functional self test of the PLB's internal circuitry, battery voltage and power, and 406 MHz transmission gives you peace of mind knowing your PLB will work the moment you need it most. Built-in GPS acquisition test mode allows you to test GPS functionality up to 12 times over the life of the battery.
Tap in to the same field-tested rescue technology used by the U.S. Military, U.S. Coast Guard, NATO Special Forces and Arctic explorers.

Works fine. Is a little longer than stock cable.

I bought one for my 07 Honda and my new 13 yz450f and they are a great quality that holds up in nasty harescrambles and a great upgrade from stock for someone looking for a tiny improvement from the oem cable pull. I noticed that a lot of people have complained about their cable not coming with the advertised easy lube port and thought I could straighten that out, the port is under an o-ring that fits in a groove on the cable that you have to pry up the o-ring to access the hole. Easy to overlook but it's there, buy one today and you won't be dissapinted and it's only around 10 bucks more than a standard cable.

bought as a spare. bought an OEM and tusk clutch cable. tusk was about 10 dollars cheaper than the OEM, so it's in my spare parts kit if I need an emergency replacement.

First panel
Washington, DC Friday, March 16, 2012
The Berkley Center for Religion, Peace & World Affairs at Georgetown University hosted an all-day symposium on the role of religious groups in the Arab world after a year of political upheaval in the region Friday.
The discussion, called "Religious Freedom and Extremism: Lessons from the Arab Spring" examined the relationship between religious freedom and religious extremism, the idea that religious freedom limits religious extremism and how U.S. foreign policy can promote democratic institutions and religious freedom to counter religious extremism.
The first panel discussion covered the topic, "How Repression Breeds Religious Extremism and How Religious Freedom Does the Opposite." Panelists included: University of Maryland Associate Professor Johanna Kristin Birnir; Senior Researcher and Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life Director Brian Grim; and Naval Postgraduate School Associate Professor Mohammed Hafez.
The keynote discussion on "Religious Freedom, Religious Extremism, and the Arab Spring: Bush and Obama Administration Perspectives" included panelists: Council on Foreign Relations Senior Fellow Elliott Abrams; former National Security Advisor to President George W. Bush Stephen Hadley; and Washington Institute for Near East Policy Counselor Dennis Ross.
The final panel on "Fostering Religious Freedom and Curbing Religious Extremism in the Arab Spring - Lessons for US Policy" featured University of Massachusetts Associate Professor of Political Science Jillian Schwedler; Georgetown University Assistant Professor in the Center for Contemporary Arab Studies Samuel Tadros; and Research Fellow at the Hudson Institute Samer Shehata.

I built a bass and first finished it with spray on nitro, which worked well. Then I put some decals on the guitar and needed to seal them in. I didn't think the spray would put enough nitro on to do the job, so I bought the Behlen and painted it on, sanding between coats with 1500 automotive water sand. I was pleased with the results, not a perfect mirror finish but suprisingly smooth and when it is cured and I buff it out I am sure I will be happy with it.
This product blends in perfectly when doing a repair requiring finish replacment. I love Behlen products, I have used them for 30 years.
I've used this on all my builds. Works great! I once used some stuff from a paint store, (labeled string instrument lacquer) and it checked horribly. I've since scraped and sanded it off, and will replace it with this stuff.
This is the best I've tried, especially when you use their brand from start to finish. This means using their vinyl sealer and thinner.
Guys, little helpful tip. I've noticed after doing this several times that if you put the "light" coats on first and the "heavy" coats last you will get better, lasting results. the slow-drying, thick topcoat resists "crazing"(those annoying little cracks that happen in the finish over time). Another little thing, a respirator is definitely needed. the solvents, and acids used to make nitrocellulose are harmful or fatal to humans, so please be careful. I hope this is of some help to someone.
Great nitro. Cures quickly, buffs out well.
The Behlen nitrocellulose lacquer that I received from Stew Mac was in a word very forgiving for my talents and the equipment I had to use to do the job. I would recommend it for your next project, just be sure to order a can of retarder with your order to get a good job with out wasting time and material. It will slow down the drying time so the laquer will flow out smother and not blush.
I used StewMac Behlen Nitrocellulose Lacquer on my first build and I couldn't be happier. It went on easy and polished out to a brilliant, factory like shine. My first build turned out so well that it created a monster. I now have several other guitar builds in the works.
I am new to HVLP spray finishing guitars, and can't believe I waited this long! I've been using rattle can lacquer for some time now, and that doesn't even come close to how well the Behlen Nitro lacquer applies, layers and sands! I do this as a hobby, and my life just got much easier. One thing - You MUST pay attention to the relative humidity outside when using this product. I've found that anything over 65% may cause the top layer of lacquer to cloud when drying. This can be rectified by sanding the layer, or applying a "wet" coat on top, but it is better to just avoid this.
Goes on nice and polishes up easy... Nothing looks nicer than nitrocellulose lacquer.

Judge sentences teen to church in Oklahoma
What do you think about a judge as part of a sentencing deal, mandating attendence to a mosque for 10 years? If you are the average American, you would be up and arms. If you are many on the Christian right-wing, you might even offer death threats to the judge. But Judge Mike Norman did just so, but it was a 10 year requirement for church attendence for a 17 year old teen named Tyler Alred who took a plea bargain suspended prison sentence for manslaughter. He was driving under the influence of alcohol and crashed his car into a tree, in which his friend died.
Now, Alred seems fine to have that as part of his sentence because he goes to a church already. But, what if the teens was a Muslim or atheist or Jew? Instead of the suspended sentence would the judge have sent him to prison instead and not suspend the imprisonment? The judge states he didn't know that Alred already goes to church. What if Alred converts to a non-Christian religion or becomes an atheist?
Will he still be required? There aren't many atheists in Oklahoma relatively, but there are some. How long before one of them is sentenced to church by a judge like Mike Norman? Well, it has already happened. After all, a Judge Quirk in Oklahoma in the 1990s ordered hundreds of defendents in misdemeanor and traffic cases to attend church weekly. Even in Oklahoma, some of them won't be believers in a god.
In Alabama last year a town required first-time misdemeanor offenders to choose between either jail or weekly church attendence. The ACLU got this unconstitutional program dropped. Because after all, if the choice is between church and imprisonment, that is not much of a real choice.
Judges have discreation, but only so much. They cannot and should not use their governmental power to further and advocate for their own personal religious beliefs. Ironically, Oklahoma is one of those states that passed anti-Sharia legislation. Supposedly if that didn't happen Islamic sharia law would dominate the government of Oklahoma. Well, they should have insted passed legislation targeting a different religion. Because only the Christian right-wing has the political power in America to impose its' will.

Positive Birth Stories
Women can overcome the fear surrounding labor and birth by hearing or reading Positive Birth Stories. I have asked a number of my Bradley Method® and Prenatal Yoga students to write their experiences down to share with other couples. Most of these stories on my blog http://prenatalyoga.wordpress.com are stories of natural birth. A couple of them are not, but these mothers were able to turn their baby's birth into an empowering experience and bring their babies into the world in the best, safest, and gentlest way possible.
"Women need to hear positive birth stories. Sadly, women who have positive, transformative, challenging but amazing births usually don't tell their stories. They may think it's not normal, or may not want to make other women feel inferior. Women need to share their birth stories, both positive and difficult, and when they're difficult, we should examine why and what could have changed. These stories have the power to transform how society looks at birth, to dispel the myths and relieve the fear." Debra Pascali-Bonaro
A Successful Breech-First Labor and Birth
Here is the courageous story of one of my couples who were determined to get the best, safest birth for their baby. With education and support, they did it. You can too!
Birth Story of Rose Ellice Woods
Heather: Just hours away from my first Mother's Day, and a few days shy of her 9 month anniversary, I'd like to finally tell the story of my daughter's birth.
" Our baby was "due" August 19th. On the 15th around 1700, I began writing a birth story that in my head was perfect. Everything I wrote down was perfect, the way I envisioned it all going needed to come out. I had been feeling really low and stressing about what would happen. We discovered that the baby was breech at my 38 week check up, which came as quite a shock because up to that point baby was vertex. We tried everything possible to get baby to turn back around, from an ECV (version) the Friday two weeks before her due date, to moxibustion, summersaults and headstands in the pool, headstands off the bed and stairs, rebozo prescribed by our wonderful Doula, the Webster technique at the Chiropractor's office, to prenatal massage with the hope of increasing the blood flow to the uterus to give baby more room. Nothing worked! Our Doctor at the Naval Hospital told me that although he was very experienced with breech vaginal deliveries and he was the only staff member there that was, I was not a candidate for such an attempt. It was my first childbirth, and therefore my pelvis was "untested," so there was an allegedly big risk that I wouldn't be able to push the head out. He insisted that a Cesarean was the only way to go, as anything else was "outside the standard of care."
" After going thru the Bradley Classes with Liza, we felt our dreams of having a natural childbirth dissipating. I sent Liza an email that afternoon explaining our predicament and begging for advice and links to research. She came through for us immediately with a slew of suggestions and encouragement. Getting back to the good doctor, he failed to speak with us after the unsuccessful version attempt, but we did go in the following Monday morning for the growth scan that had been scheduled for 38 weeks because of the gestational diabetes. I called that afternoon to the OB clinic to see when our next appointment was, and was told the 18th! Our Doctor was on leave for two weeks and we were scheduled to see a midwife a day before the due date. I knew this was wrong, obviously the baby being breech had to change the plan, but apparently the word hadn't been passed. After some ribbing from my Mom, who was yelling at me all the way from Chicago, I knew I'd have to make a scene. It was now or never.
" We had researched a ton since we got the news of our breech surprise and after much thought, prayer, and discussion, had decided on having our natural breech birth. The only question was how. I entertained thoughts of driving up to LA to try and see Dr. Stuart Fischbein, whose many articles and evidenced-based research on breech births gave me the confidence I needed to speak intelligently with any Doctor who would listen… Then I thought how wonderful it would be to go to the Farm and ask Ina May to deliver our baby! Being in the military definitely eliminated some of these more extreme fantasies, and we knew we were stuck with the Naval Hospital, which until this point hadn't seemed so bad. I called the OB back Monday afternoon, and demanded to speak with my midwife, Ms. Moran. I explained what had happened, and about why I didn't have another appointment that week, and told her I needed a chit to get me off work completely as I was now 38 plus weeks and things were so complicated. She told me to come in the next day and pick up my chit, no problem getting that, which I was grateful for. We went back to her office and sat down and laid out how I felt, which was that I needed to be seen to make sure baby was doing well, and not put on a back burner. She set me up with an appointment for Wednesday morning with a Doctor we didn't know but one she said was very good. I was glad we were making a little progress, but still wondering how this could work out.
" As we drove to my Company Office to drop off my chit, I got a phone call from the clinic. It was Ms. Moran, and she did not have good news. She said that she had just spoken with our first Doctor, the one who was supposed to be on leave. He had scheduled us for Cesarean that Friday morning, the 12th! The shit hit the fan. Greg was driving, thank God, and I had to fight not to lose my mind on the phone. She was quick to say that she hadn't known anything about this either, and we could talk about it with our new Doctor the next morning. I made it clear there was no way in hell we would be there that Friday for that major operation. I was livid. I would be 39 weeks Friday, but we had decided even in the event we were unable to go for a natural birth, we would at least wait for labor to start spontaneously, that way we knew baby would be ready. I was furious that that smug Doctor could just throw us on a schedule for a major (and life changing) operation without so much as talking about it with us. We went in the next morning.
" I paced the floor and snapped at the Corpsman taking my vitals. My blood pressure was high and Greg kept trying to get me to calm down. I wore my 1/5 Marines T-shirt like a flak jacket, geared up for the fight. I couldn't swallow the anger that had built up any longer. Someone was about to get an earful. Then we met Dr. Kelly Elmore. She was young, and the minute she walked in she asked how we were doing. Big mistake. I told her exactly what was on my mind, I let her have it with both barrels, while Greg sat dutifully not trying to soften the blow. I was sick of not being heard, sick of having major decisions decided for me based on a standard of care and what was considered normal. We wanted more than that. After I got everything off my chest, I felt a weight lifted. Dr. Elmore looked me in the eye the whole time and listened to what I had to say, and she responded so gracefully, that we would go to her office after she checked on baby and we would sit down and talk. I knew she meant it. I immediately lightened up, I felt my demeanor change. Something about her was comforting in a non-condescending way. Baby's vitals were strong and I was 2 cm dilated, not in labor by any stretch but starting to open slowly. We followed her back to her office and got to have our talk. I explained how we had been researching and desperately wanted a natural child-birthing experience, we felt that was the safest and healthiest way to go. I told her our other Doctor had told us he was the only one there on staff that had any experience and was comfortable delivering the breech births, but we needed someone to give us a chance. We also asked about the results of the growth scan, since we never did hear anything from it. She then informed us that there were in fact two Doctors on staff with breech experience, and she was the second one! She explained her criteria, which matched Dr. Fischbein's almost exactly, and as long as we could agree to that she believed that it was her duty to let us go for it! The growth scan had baby between 5 and 7 pounds, and I had lots of fluid so there were no worries there. She explained that she was a Christian lady, and she put a lot of faith in God to lead her with her work, and she suggested we pray about it and she would too. She was a miracle to us, the answer to our prayers. It was such a rush hearing her tell us this, she put the wind back in our sails.
" There was just one problem. She'd only be around from that day until the next Thursday. Then she was going on leave. So basically we got this awesome news that our dreams might be saved, and then a minute later were told I would have to go into spontaneous labor, and progress with no back tracking or slowing, within a seven day window! It wasn't perfect, but it was a hell of a lot better than having a Cesarean two days later. We left there feeling elated, we had hope. We continued all the exercises we had been doing to get baby to flip, but we were ready for her to come the way he/ she wanted.
" We came in Friday morning for a non-stress test, to make sure the placenta was still in good condition and see that baby was not stressed at all, Dr. Elmore wanted to do that twice a week until baby came, but as time was short we scheduled one for that Friday and another for the following Tuesday, both days she could make sure to be there. I really appreciated her willingness to be there for us, instead of letting whoever was on the labor deck that day take over. She made the effort to give us some continuity of care which made a huge difference. Everything went well with the NST, baby and womb looked great and we went home to hit the pool.
" Over the weekend we went to the chiropractor again and did round two for the Webster Technique. We kept up with the moxibustion and walking, I made sure to keep tracking my blood sugar levels closely because of the Gestational Diabetes, and just spent time at home trying to relax. I had been reading Ina May's Guide to Childbirth, a gift from Doula Rosie, and that helped me a lot as well. I was trying not to focus on when baby would come, but the more I tried the more I focused. I was feeling very anxious. Doubt began to creep into my mind. I felt alone, even though my husband was there with me. Ultimately it was I who had to answer the consequences of our decision.
" That brings us back to Monday, when I felt my worst. I couldn't get out of the rut I was in mentally, and I got so sick of my negativity that I finally finished a Bradley assignment we had been given weeks earlier. I wrote out the best birth story I could think up. I went step by step, detailing how I felt and what we did each step of the way. Ultimately I wrote that I went into labor that night, we walked and did our nightly routine, and I had the baby the next morning! After I finished writing, I laid down and tried to take a nap, I felt really tired. It was around 1800, and I noticed that my back was aching, so much that it was becoming impossible to get comfortable and snooze. I remembered I needed to call Rosie and remind her about the NST we had scheduled for 0800 the next day. I got on the phone with her and she asked about the strain in my voice. I told her my lower back was hurting but that it wasn't that serious. She seemed to think it might be something, and told me to try and sleep and just go about the evening normally. Eat something and sleep. She insisted that I call her back in a couple hours to let her know how I felt. She felt pretty sure it was more than a backache. I just kept brushing it off and trying to nap, then around 2000 we had dinner. " Greg made rice, beef, and veggies. I ate about half but wasn't hungry after that. Then we took our nightly walk. I felt like walking would loosen up my back, it was feeling so tight. I still thought it was just odd pain, nothing big. Normally we just did two or three half mile circles around the whole apt complex, but that night I felt adventurous.
My Gunny was in the habit of telling me to "find a hill" and how good that was for pregnancy, so I figured it was a good time to test a nice big hill just across the street from our usual path. We dubbed it "Rivera's Ridge" in honor of my Gunny, and Greg joked that I better not go into labor or I'd have to tell him he was right. We walked downhill first, and I was feeling great. After the walk back up the hill, which took about 30 mins total, we crossed the street and I had to stop and lean into Greg because there was such pressure all of a sudden in my lower back. I asked him to press on it and he did, we stayed that way there on the corner for a couple minutes I think. We were just a couple blocks away from home and we made it back without having to stop again, but I finally was starting to think maybe there was something different going on.
" After we finished our walk we set up the outside balcony with our usual assortment of things. We lit the tiki torches, brought out the rocker for me to sit in along with the heating pad for my back, had the candles lit as well, our glasses of white wine, and Beethoven playing inside. It was a really cozy set up, and the temperature outside was perfect thanks to the coast a mile and a half away. We were on day 9 of 10 with the moxi, and I thought we better try to do it. Greg kept trying to get me to use the contraction timer to time my back pain, just to see if there was any kind of pattern. We had learned about back labor in our Bradley class. I grudgingly agreed to play around with the timer, and figured out to my surprise it seemed as though I was having contractions, as the pain kept coming and going. They were coming between 6 and 10 minutes apart, and lasting for 50-70 seconds! By this time it was around 2300 and I thought it best to text Rosie instead of calling, I wanted to let her know about the contractions but not wake her just yet, I knew there would be time before it got serious. Rosie didn't text back, and I was glad we hadn't waked her.
" At midnight after we brought everything back inside, we laid down to try and get some sleep. I had Greg's phone and paid a bit more attention to timing the contractions, although I still had doubts in my mind about if this was really it. For the next hour they came from 6 to 8 minutes apart and lasted 50-80 seconds, and I told Greg to get some sleep. He did just that and around 0100, I put the phone down and closed my eyes, intending to get some sleep myself. I'd heard of women sleeping right through labor and thought I might get lucky. I laid there for over an hour trying to force myself to relax and sleep, when I finally gave it up.
" At 0230 I went into the front room and began googling what to pack for the trip to the hospital. We never did pack our bags! I started timing again, and by this time they were 3 to 5 minutes apart, lasting from 40-60 seconds, and I accepted the fact that this was really happening. I got excited and nervous together, and had all this energy. The contractions were manageable, and I worked around them packing up our bags and getting everything we'd need together. Sometimes I'd kneel on the carpet with my butt way up and sway through the wave, but then I figured out that leaning over the kitchen counter with my legs spread wide swaying worked best. I had Tom Petty playing as loud as the computer would play it, which was loud enough to wake Greg up. He saw me swaying and knew exactly what was up. He got excited and wondered how the hell I had packed our bags. He wanted to call Rosie, so around 0300 he gave her a ring. She said she'd be over within the hour, and I got in the shower. The great thing about that apt building was unlimited hot water. And it felt great on my back. I brought the computer in and put it on the sink so I could sing along with Tom.
" In our Bradley class we learned to relax and just breathe through the contractions, but I felt like being up and singing along with Tom at the top of my lungs. Rosie arrived right after 0400, and wanted to know what she could do to help. Greg didn't really know what to do, I was in the shower with Tom the whole time! Rosie loved it, she sang a little with me too and said I was doing great. Around 0500 I filled up the tub and laid down on my side. It felt much better under the water and I wished I had more room. I was still laughing and having a good time with it all, and Rosie and Greg were so helpful. I told them I wanted to go to the beach and walk along the water, we lived just 5 minutes away. They thought that was a real good idea so at 0630 I hauled myself out of the tub and got dressed.
" The amazing part is that it was the morning of the 16th, and Dr. Elmore was on the labor deck that one day, every other day that week they would have had to call her in…it was perfect timing. I wanted to labor at home as long as possible and I wanted baby to wait until at least 0700 when Dr. Elmore's shift started. At 0700 we got to the beach and it was all ours. We walked right along the water next to the Oceanside Pier and it was such a perfect moment in time. It was overcast as always in the early morning on the coast, and Rosie walked with Greg and I and snapped a few precious pictures. The contractions were coming now 2 to 4 minutes apart and lasting 50-70 seconds. Each time they came I just leaned forward into Greg's chest and he pressed on my back. It felt surreal. I felt so blessed to be able to have the ocean right there at our feet, I had to soak them of course but Greg thought the water was too cold so he stayed farther back." After half an hour there we had to decide where we'd go next. I didn't want to go back to the apt, we had everything loaded up and it seemed like a waste. I wasn't sure I wanted to go to the hospital either though, so we decided to meet up at Lake Oneil, just two minutes from the Navy Hospital. I wondered aloud if maybe I would skip the "serious signpost" we learned about, because though the pain was intense, I was still joking and smiling and thinking of things not directly related to the task at hand. Then in the car, it was just Greg and I, Rosie was driving separately, they started to come 2 to 3 minutes apart and lasted 50-70 seconds. It was so uncomfortable in that car I finally got serious, there was nothing else I could think of but each one coming. I told Greg to just go to the hospital. He let Rosie know the change of plan and I began moaning with each one. It seemed to take forever getting to the Hospital, but really was only 20 minutes at most. We parked and I wanted to wait outside for Rosie. I had to pee really bad so I went in to pee and came right back out. We were nervous Rosie would have problems at the gate but she told the MP her duties and charmed her way through. I was walking back and forth in front of the hospital and when Rosie got there I still wasn't ready to go inside. I got really nervous all of a sudden but I didn't want to tell either of them, just wanted to get my head together. I walked off a little ways and wanted to cry. I felt like a baby, but I knew once we went inside that was it. The weight of it all hit me and I did cry, thinking about how I'd be a mom when we left. It was a very sobering moment. I was glad it was gray outside. After a couple minutes I told them I was ready. They asked if I wanted a wheel chair, hell no!
" At 0800 we checked in on the labor deck. They sent Greg to the third floor for my record and Rosie and I went into the triage room to get checked out. I was so thankful for Rosie, she's the sweetest woman we could have found to share this experience. As soon as we walked into the triage room I started having a monster contraction. I leaned over the sink and felt warm water going down my leg. It looked like pee and I didn't know what to think. Rosie went to get the nurse after she told me my water must have broke. There was brown stuff in the liquid and I got really nervous. The nurse came right in and said we were going to the labor room, no time for triage. I asked her if I could wear my own gown and got changed.
" A midwife came in and started getting my vitals, she told me they need to prep me for the OR. I sat right up and informed her that I wasn't going to the OR. She fired back asking if the baby was still breech. Yes, now go get Dr. Elmore and tell her we are here! I was mama bear and this lady better get on with it if she knew what was good for her. About five minutes later she came back in, said that Dr. Elmore was really happy we were there and that I was going to do great! She did a complete 180 and it felt really good to hear her say that. I knew how important it was to have positive vibes going out from reading Ina May's book, and that's just what we had. Pretty soon there were different nurses and midwives coming in and telling us that they were rooting for us, we were going to do great and stuff like that. Everything was coming together so perfectly I could hardly believe it.
" At 0900 Dr. Elmore came in with a huge smile on her face. We all knew this was divine intervention. She checked me and I was 3 cm dilated. I felt kind of terrible because I'd been laboring for quite some time and hadn't made much progress. I just buckled down and knew it was going to be rough work from there, and Rosie and Greg were amazing. For the next two hours it got really intense, there was no break in between the contractions, they were on top of each other. Greg and Rosie took turns pushing on my back with all their might and I went from side lying, to walking around a bit to getting in the shower. The shower was super weak but at least the water was hot and it felt really good being in there, while Greg stood just outside so I could lean on him and let the water hit my back. I was hooked up to the EFM every 15 minutes so I was free to move around and try different positions, that helped immensely. The only other attachment I had was a hep lock just in case, but I didn't want them hooking up the IV as I was fine drinking on my own. We brought granola bars and snacks with us and by this point I was feeling drained, I ate a fiber one bar just to keep up my strength but it was hard getting it down. At 1100 Dr. Elmore came back and check me again, I was 5 cm open but feeling the urge the push. I was so sure I'd be almost fully open so hearing her say 5 was crushing.
" At that point I started to wonder whether I would have enough power to push the baby out when the time came. It was such a marathon. There were sounds coming from somewhere way deep within and it all felt so primal. I was grunting and growling and low moaning, while my power team kept the steady pressure on my back. It was really a team effort. I was fighting the urge to push, it's dangerous to push when you're not fully open because the cervix can actually tear, which will lead to Cesarean, and because a breech baby's head is the last and biggest part to come and if you're not all the way open it could get ugly. Rosie taught me how to "keep the feather in the air" and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done. My whole body was bearing down, this incredible force just taking over and I had to fight with every ounce of strength and discipline I had in my body to counteract that force. By 1300 I was at 7 cm, and again, couldn't believe it still wasn't time to push! This was getting insane. Rosie told me not to think about it, she could tell we were right there. She promised it wouldn't be long and I prayed to God she was right. I figured I could only go on so long, but I knew I would see this through or literally die trying. I can be a bit dramatic at times. I wanted to go back to the shower. Baby's heartbeat had been great the whole time, and even though I leaked water and meconium the whole time after we left the triage room, the DR wasn't worried because it was normal with breeches. They're little butts get squeezed with every contraction and mine was no different.
" Another great example of what an Angel we found in Rosie, she followed me around making sure to clean up so I wouldn't get disgusted. I made it to the shower and all of a sudden I couldn't fight it any longer. My body was pushing and grunting and I tried with all my might to stop it but it was like I was on auto pilot. I told Greg and Rosie this baby was coming, to get the Dr. now! My biggest fear was that I'd run out of strength halfway through getting baby out and the little head would be trapped. I knew from my reading that it was important to get the head out pretty fast once the cord had passed through, it gets compressed in the birth canal and restricts the oxygen to baby so it all needs to happen relatively quick. Somehow none of that was important now, nothing else existed outside of my own body. I got back to the bed and didn't have time to put my gown back on. I was on my knees facing the head of the bed and Rosie sat it all the way upright and had me lean on it with my elbows.
" The anesthesiologist showed up, he was supposed to prep me for an epidural just in case we had to have an emergency Cesarean, I was also supposed to give birth in the OR as a precaution. Greg leaned in and told me that the Anesthesiologist was there and I growled at him what for! Then there was this incredible force that just totally consumed me, and everybody sort of disappeared.
" The noises got more and more raw. The midwife checked me and a minute later she was whispering the sweetest words into my ear… "You are fully dilated, you can push now." I never heard anything so welcome. Greg was there at my side, encouraging me all the way, and Rosie too. I started pushing and they told me to stop!
Wait for the DR! I thought, you have got to be shitting me! I felt this insane pressure and burning, this weight bearing down. Then she was there, but still they said wait! The baby's butt was crowning! She has to get her gloves on! I wanted to scream how fucking long does it take to put gloves on?! I'm proud to say I was able to hold that back to a low roar and then finally I got the green light. The midwife or Rosie, it's a blur now, told me I could reach down and feel my baby.
" For a second everything slowed down, and I reached down with such trepidation, afraid of what I'd find. Then I felt that tiny butt! My mind whirled, all I could say or think was Oh my God, Oh my God. It felt holy in a way, it was surreal. The second passed and I was pushing again, pushing with everything I had left to give. I heard when her legs and arms were out, and then from voices all around me I was told to push! Greg said, "If you're ever going to push you have to push now!" The DR, the midwife, Rosie, everyone was telling me to push, get that head out! For a moment there was doubt, there was fear greater than anything I'd ever felt, I had nothing left. In that moment I didn't have to pray, my heart was an open book bleeding out to God… I closed my eyes and concentrated every effort, every thought on this one thing, and I knew we were being prayed for in that instant, and I let go without even feeling any more… Just willing this baby out of me. And then it was done. The pressure and the burning were gone. There was this huge release, and then nothing.
" I was facing the head of the bed, and I had birthed the baby on my knees so I didn't see when it was finally over, I was suddenly staring at the wall. There was no noise then, it was silent, and I was scared again. Why wasn't my baby crying? I looked behind me and there was Greg, staring at me in disbelief. I yelled at him to see the baby, he snapped out of his trance quickly. Then Rosie told Greg to announce the sex of the baby to mom! He looked from our tiny baby to me, I still couldn't see because there was a 5 man team of DRs and nurses just for the baby blocking my view. He tried to say something but tears just filled his eyes. Then he mouthed, "I was right." We had a little girl! She was okay, just needed a little help getting started. They handed her to me wrapped in a blanket with a little hat on, she was alert and wide eyed. I was stunned at her beauty, she was so tiny and perfect. I counted ten tiny fingers and toes, they were blue but getting pinker. I couldn't believe it was over. I couldn't believe we had a daughter.
" What an incredible honor, what a powerful trip it was seeing her into this world. I am forever grateful for the people we were surrounded by, for sweet Rosie, and my awesome husband. For our angel Dr. Elmore and the whole staff that morning. To God for bestowing this precious treasure upon me, I'll never understand why she's been given to me. But I'll fight every day for the rest of my life to keep her safe, to take care of her, to be there. My precious baby girl was born on August 16th, 2011 at 1521 at the Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton. She was 6 pounds 7 ounces and 18.5'ʻ long. We named her a week later, Rose Ellice Woods.
