Pregnancy ramblings

Okay, so I am still up. I just posted another blog below and many more before that in the last day, so make sure you check it out. I thought I would feel better and go back to bed (I've been up feeling sick again since 2:30 am) but it is now past 5 and I am still awake.

I haven't wrote much about my pregnancy so I thought I would write about it for documentation purposes;)

This 3rd pregnancy has been very different from my other two. My body has sure felt it more and has not been liking it that much. BUT, I count my blessings because I know it is not even that bad compared to what some women go through. So here is what has made this pregnancy different. Good and Bad.

-I get deathly sick (like food poisoning sick) like once every two weeks
-I wake up in the last trimester feeling nauseous and my stomach feeling uneasy
-I can not lay on my back for any reason. It will make me sick.
-I have put on more weight in this pregnancy then the last two.
-I crave sugar (that can explain the weight gain I'm sure)
-I have gone the whole pregnancy not knowing who my doctor will be or if I will be able to VBAC
-A few other ailments I dare not publicize.

Okay, so those are all bad. Let me add some good!

-This baby kicks me more than Marek or Ammo did. Marek hardly ever moved, Ammo did flips and this one just kicks me constantly. It is funny.
-He likes to kick the bed every time I lay down to go to sleep. I usually poke him back and we get into fights. It is weird ;)
-I will be able to VBAC!!!

I am 36 weeks pregnant and finally have a doctor! I met with him yesterday and he said that he will support me in a 2vbac! I am so excited. The only thing that is kinda weird is that he is YOUNG. He looks young at least. I didn't dare ask his age in fear I would sound too sarcastic and rude. He also joked around with me a lot in the room which made me feel... confused? I think I like him... I mean, he IS letting me vbac, right? All I know is I have been worried sick about this the whole pregnancy and now it is here and it is a GO. Everything else is in the Lord's hands now. So, I trust that I have found the right doctor and that everything will go how it should. I am just going to relax from stressing about it and focus on getting the baby's room done. I have one month until my due date. I plan on going over, so that would make it a little more than a month. I will be constantly praying that my labor and delivery will go PERFECTLY with no HICCUPS. It has to be this way or else a c section is certain.

Well, those are my pregnancy ramblings. None of it probably made sense but at least it kept me busy writing it. Oh, I'm so grateful Chaz's school hasn't started yet so he will be home today to take care of the kids while I... possibly catch up on some sleep! ;)

Good luck with the VBAC. My neighbor is holding out for one as well. Just in case you change your mind, I had #3 scheduled C-section and found it to be much easier than the emergency one.

I'm so sorry you get so sick- you are so close and almost done! I don't remember if I told you about this website before, but there are TONS of awesome birth stories, and tons of them are Vbacs. Some even like 4Vbac! So I know you can do it:) It's a little crunchy, and sometimes has graphic birth photos, but that stuff doesn't bother me. I just like reading the birth stories, there are many different types on there- it's making me feel more confident in my homebirth I'm plannning- our bodies are so amazing, we can do ANYTHING! Good luck :)
