No, it's not a coming of age movie with any of the kids from High School Musical... It's me, being 13 weeks pregnant, making my way to full term at 40 weeks. I'm finally into my 2nd trimester, and so mostly out of the woods as far as miscarriage goes, but with 2 losses still in my heart, it's hard not to still worry. Mostly I am focusing on trying to prepare for a VBAC (a vaginal birth after cesarian). I've found a supportive doctor, joined the local ICAN chapter and am seriously considering a doula. I need to start reading some books about natural birth, I think my ICAN group has a lending library, but I keep forgetting to ask about checking stuff out.
It's really kind of overwhelming, all the information that's out there. and I kind of feel like I'm doing all this for the first time. When I was pregnant with the boys, all I did was concentrate on the twin stuff... I'm pretty sure that things wouldn't have worked out much differently if I'd done more, but there are those naggings in the back of my mind, and I just really want this time to be different - mainly concerning a natural birth and breast feeding.
So be prepared readers, there's going to be a lot boob and vagina talk over the coming months :)

I told you when you started this blog, I was only going to read if you were serious about the adult content. So, I am glad to hear that the boob and vagina talk is on its way.
Congratulations!!!
