Baby Bump - 13 weeks + Good news!

How im feeling? - Slowly but surely my nausea and morning sickness is fading ... um.. ya did I say slowly? cause I seriously meant slowly. Luckily I don't have that constant feeling of wanting to vomit all day and all night but now it's more so just random. But boy, when it hits, it hits and it hits with a vengeance and I have also noticed if I overeat, my nausea and vomiting kicks it into high gear and 'kindly' reminds me 'hell no!'. I still have my days of feeling tired and I still find myself snuggling into bed with my Kindle around 9pm sharp {oh wait, who am I kidding. I did that before I got pregnant too}.

Craving? - This week? Bagels and cream cheese. My goodness, carbs just need to go away. For good. Other then that I haven't been craving anything really. I do have to have ice chips in my water. Have to. I find that, that is the only way I can drink my water, as long as it has the ice chips in it.

Weight Gain? - Ha! Let's not even go there yet. I am short and well us short people? Every little lump, bump and 0.5lb gain is gonna show. Ya. It sucks. My fingers retain water a lot easier these days. Every where else is fine {ankles, calves, legs... etc}. Just my hands. But even before I got pregnant my hands always, very easily retained water. Not cute {at least I have the bump now to distract the attention away from the sausage fingers O.o}.

Mood? - For the most part, same as always. Although today I seemed to have quite a bit of mini-meltdowns. At the dog for chewing on an old chair that was going to be thrown out anyways. At J for kicking his door and at Josh for saying the dogs should stay outside {no!}. Aye....

Sleep? - Eh. It could be better. It's not bad but I do seem to wake up quite a few times during the night for no real reason, besides having to use the bathroom {which right now during the night im at 1-2 times}. Sometimes the nausea punches me in the gut during a sound sleep and wakes me right up. Last night the dogs decided 1AM was the perfect time to just randomly start chewing at each others faces playing and well that woke me up and so I played a few word games on my kindle in bed until I felt like I could go back to sleep again.

And so you all can see this bump has a 'face' ;)

In other news. Well I should say fantastic news... I found a new doctor! If you read my 12 week update then you would have read where my doctor informed me that with her and the hospital, a vbac would have been a big NO-go. Well... that's a big NO-no for me. I did some research and I believed I had found another doctor/hospital that would do them. I called the doctors office that following week and after speaking to a nurse on the phone and answering some questions about my first pregnancy and c-section, she called me back after speaking with the doctor and told me that she {the doctor} will allow me to try for a vbac {yay!}. Make a long story short, went and broke up with my old doctor, signed the release form for my records. New doctor received my records a day later, called me and scheduled me for my first appt {with her} which is in about 2 weeks.

I am so relieved. Honestly, a vbac was something I truly wanted. I wanted the ability to at least try and so thankful I found a doctor who will let me do just that... try. I feel like now that, that's out of the way I can relax a lot more and really enjoy the pregnancy now.

Yay for second trimester!
