I moved all of my first born's things to his own page, including my labor story. I am trying to create a clean space for baby #2, so that updates can easily be found. I just hope and pray the TTC part doesn't take to long. The first time around I was so excited to concieve, but nervous of all the unknowns to come. I had my arms wide open for welcoming the news experiences. This second time around my fears are so different. I had a C-section with my first 9-7-06. With there being scar tissue and will be nervous that the placenta will implant on the scar tissue or over the cervix. I am also scared of reliving the morning sickness. I went through 20 weeks of misery the first time. I am going to prepare myself with Vit B6 and Ginger Tea. I hope that it will work, but I just have a feeling that it won't. I tried a multitude of things last time to alleviate the sickness. Nothing worked!

I really want this to be a VBAC baby. I am in our local ICAN Chapter and reading all kinds of books to educate myself. I have found a doctor that will deliver VBACs, thanks to ICAN. She is an hour and a half away, but it will be so worth it. I have ordered Raspberry Leaf Tea to strengthen and tone my uterus and I have actually started exercising (about time!).

Pregnancy is "in the water" around here, so maybe it won't take long. I am really hoping to concieve by May. I will start getting really axious by that point. What am I saying, I am already anxious, but then I think about all the sleep I will lose, the sickness, and how I have a perfect toddler now and I calm down some.

I took my NuvaRing out on Sunday, January 6, 2008.
I got my BFP on Friday, February 15, 2008

I GOT A BFP! This is the last thing I expected. I can `t believe I got so lucky. Never in my wildest dreams was it ever that easy!
