  • Thanks!  I realized that Snapfish wasn't working for sig pics, so I went over to Shutterfly, and that's the last thing I had uploaded-her one year pics!  She sure did grow up fast....

    I'm not hanging in there okay.  I'm in complete misery.  I want to reach up there and grab her and pull her out.  I'm sleep deprived, achy, irritable, and just plain b*tchy.

    How are you feeling?

  • Oh hun, I feel awful for you! I hope she comes out soon. Like, any minute now!

    I'm feeling good. I'm getting to the point where I'd rather not bend over unless I have to because my pelvis feels like it's gonna split in two, but other than that I'm well. Just had my 28wk appt yesterday. Still contemplating the repeat c/s vs. VBAC. Blegh - decisions, decisions.

  • Haha!  I hear ya on the bending over!  It's almost physically impossible for me at this point.  My poor Ashlyn....she's got the world's worst mommy right now.  I can't play on the floor, I can't pick up toys, and I'm breathless carrying her up stairs.

    Ooo-I don't know what I'd pick either if those were my choices.  I had a vaginal birth with Ashlyn, and I assume I'll have the same with this one too.  Neither are a very "sexy" choice either!  I'd be afraid if I tried the VBAC, it wouldn't work, and I would've wasted all that time and energy trying, only to have a c-section again anyway.  But, that's my luck!  When do you have to decide?

  • Aw, try not to be too hard on yourself. I'm sure she is getting along just fine even though you can't do all the things you used to with her.

    Exactly - I'm afraid to try for the VBAC and end up with a c/s anyway. I am like 90% sure I'm just going to go for the c/s, but part of me wants to try for the VBAC, too, so we'll see. The doctor said we can keep an eye on her weight (DD was 9lbs 12oz and he thinks this one will be about the same if not bigger) as it gets closer, but I'll have to decide by 37-38wks for sure.

  • Wow-was she that big?!  I think I'd go for the repeat c-section.  I'm lazy like that though.  HA!
  • Heh. Me, too - that's why I'll probably end up with the c/s again :P
