New Addition in September 2011!


On January 2, 2011, John and I found out that we would be expecting a new addition to the family on our 6th wedding anniversary, September 17, 2011!

I had my first prenatal appointment on Wednesday, February 2, 2011. Everything looked good, uterus felt the size it should and had my routine pap. Doctor and I talked about my delivery options. She said more than likely I will have another csection again because of my history. When they induced me with Gavin my body didnt progress and more than likely that would happen again. She said that they wouldnt be able to give me meds to move it along because they could rupture my csection/uterus and that would be fatal to me and baby in a matter of minutes. However, if I did go into labor on my own, we could do a VBAC (vaginal birth after csection). I was kinda bummed about not ever having a vaginal delivery, but it is what it is. I have to do what is best for me and baby. Plus not to mention Gavin was 9lbs 7.5oz and that was a week early. She said on average 2nd babies are a pound bigger! YIKES!!! So, since I've had some spotting this pregnancy (did with Gavin too) she wanted me to come in for a u/s on Friday

Yesterday's u/s was good. Saw the heartbeat and got to hear it too! It was 174 bpm! and the baby was measuring a week ahead (just like Gavy). I'm 8 weeks today! 4 more weeks of the first trimester!
