    Please don't look at your body as having failed; your body worked and grew a healthy baby and healed from major surgery. You are amazing.

    I'll be planning a VBA2C in a hospital with a very supportive care provider. I'm happy to send resources your way on the safety and benefits of VBAC (in most cases, it's way safer for Momma, for one thing!) - and, actually, the difference in risk between VBAC and VBA2C is pretty minimal. If I do end up needing another cesarean, I hope it will be like DS2's birth - immediate skin-to-skin, delayed cord clamping, breastfeeding in the OR and never any separation between us.

    Gentle birth does not have to mean natural birth. Ask me about family centered cesarean!

    Sounds positive and awesome, Junie! I'm buying diet food next week too - eek. How did we get so close? Today I've eaten three cupcakes, just because I know that dieting's coming up - which probably isn't the healthiest attitude, but there you go.

    And, please, you're calling that a novel? Girl, have you seen my posts?

    I sort of start next week. I am don't know if I am going to lose the weight I need to. It is stuck to me like glue while nursing. It is driving me batty.

    Kelissi, I will take the info. I really don't think I am capable of having a vaginal birth. Neither of my babies defended. My midwife doesn't think I am physically able to have a vaginal birth, and she said she NEVER tells women that. Even though I sort of know it isn't a possibility I can't give up the dream. I actually enjoy the labor part to some degree. I mean don't get me wrong, it hurts, but I love the excitement of labor.

    So I am vaguely starting today. Even though I NEVER eat breakfast of course I felt like eating breakfast today LOL I am so bad at diets. But the nice thing about starting now is hopefully I can figure out what works, stress about it now, and be nice and relaxed about it in a few weeks.

    Our younger son who was a bit tough the last few months has made the switch over to being super adorable and only a little bit frustrating instead of the other way around. Words are slowly starting to come and DH is definitely enjoying his time with him and all the kisses and "Papas!!", but of course now older son is testing limits again.... but we're in a good place and I am really hoping my mom's visit next month will help tip the scale in terms of DH finally be willing to go for it. It does feel a bit strange to start doing diet,etc without being 100% sure of DH's timing with coming on board but if I am honest with myself in my heart I do absolutely believe DH will be on board soon and it is just a matter of when exactly.

    First day on the diet was pretty much a success. I almost went over on protein, and I did have a granola bar as a snack in the evening instead of something like white toast with honey, but for a first day I am happy. I stayed low in calories and in fat and tomorrow I will start adding exercise to the mix.

    Day 2 and I am a bit miserable. I hate not snacking, I miss high protein foods, I miss fatty foods, I miss everything! LOL I also feel hungry so often, I hope it gets better. I try to keep reminding myself that it isn't forever but I could really go for a deluxe burger right now!

    Day 3 is going better. I realized part of the problem was being too low on overall calories (around 1200) and obviously especially since I barely have any weight to lose that isn't necessary. I'm going to buy some more fat free treats like marshmallows to nibble on after dinner as I always feel a craving then. The exercise is going fine but I do feel it takes a good chunk of my day. I arrive at the gym around 9:15 and don't end up home till close to 11:30 with showering and all the rest. I might start trying to do it at night some days.

    How are you all doing?

    I'm struggling because my son brought a pretty bad virus home so both of us feel terrible this week. I'm so frustrated because I just don't have the energy to run an hour this morning (or even get out at all) and I've been eating a bit more nutrients, fat, and protein to help myself heal. I know being sick is "good" for swaying, but not when your sway isn't until July! I feel like I'm being derailed. Hope I feel up to my exercise tomorrow morning. I tried going yesterday while sick and just hacked up and coughed the entire time, it was rough. UGH. Sorry, pity party over.

    Junie - I usually do my workout from 5:30 AM - 6:30 AM, otherwise I never can find the time in the day to do it.

    Due 7/13/2015 ! Swayed pink and I am blessed to be with and (TWINS!)!
