We are expecting baby #2 on May 9th! We are so excited/nervous/anxious about having our 2nd baby.  Our first has been such a blessing and I could never have imagined all the joy she has brought to our lives! For a long time we had really planned on only having one little girl, as she was a little bit of a challenge as an infant (or we really just didn't have the knowledge we do now).  So we decided to let God take over and if it was meant to be it would happen. And it did! Very quickly! I can't say it was a surprise because we weren't "not trying", but I definitely didn't expect to get pregnant as quickly as a I did.  But either way we are completely overjoyed and I can't wait to be a mother of 2!!

We had our first appointment with our midwife last week, a different group of midwives than I had with my daughter.  I am hoping for a little bit different birthing experience than I had the first time around. I am hoping, now that I am a little more educated about everything, things will go a little smoother than before.  I have been given the OK so far for a VBAC and I am so completely excited about that.  Not only was I given the OK, but the new midwife did not understand why I would have needed a c-section with my first pregnancy.  So excited! We will see how things progress! But in the meantime, anyone have VBAC experiences or 2nd baby experiences to share! I would love any info!
