I enter into the 2nd trimester tomorrow and that makes me excited! This has been the roughest pregnancy yet as far as morning (all day) sickness and headaches. Every pregnancy truly is different. Every birth is too... Gracie, my first was a doozy! She was posterior and 9lbs plus which gave me quite a time. Not knowing what I know now I didn't know what to do and ended up with an epidural and Gracie coming into this world with the help of forceps. Lola was easy. No pain... I mean really! The pregnancy was crazy, I experienced gestational diabetes, pneumonia, and a UTI. Not fun, but can't complain about the labor end. Now #3 is on the way and I am wondering what to expect. Best bet is not to expect anything and hope to be pleasantly surprised! I am armed and dangerous this go around, so I am really looking forward to how all this knowledge in my noggin will affect my experience! If I were in the States I may go for a homebirth, being in Asia I will settle for a friendly hospital in HK where I have been told I can labor as I please. We'll see about that : )
Looking forward to posting interesting things I experience over here. And I need to get back to posting helpful hints. As I prepare for my own birth experience, I'll be sure to share!
Praise the Lord for His goodness! We are so thankful for this new life growing in my belly!
