So for my mom, here is my first pregnancy picture. I know I look huge for only 4 months, part of it is the dress and part of it is that I am huge. This is how it goes for me and I am ok with it. I seriously did not think I looked this big but the picture does not lie.
All is still well, I have not felt the baby move yet but it is still early. I am happy to say that I found a new OB that is closer to home that is willing to let me try another VBAC. Praise God. It was sad to leave my specialist but the drive was so far and we all felt I am past the dangerous stage and that all is looking good.
I am feeling more and more excited about the pregnancy and the baby. It is neat to think that with all that we have gone through with all the babies lost that God knew all along that we would have 4 children. It blows my mind. I feel strongly that the Lord is telling me daily to "do less". I was so overwhelmed in the beginning but I now know that it was because of all the extra things I put on my plate. I am content letting some things go for now and being mom. I don't want to miss a thing, I want to live without regret. People, relationships, our family is more important than all the things I think I should be doing. God is so good.
I see the doctor in 2 weeks and have the ultrasound in the first week of May, I will keep you all posted. Thank you for your prayers. I am feeling so much better, physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally. Praise God.

So happy for you Kelly - looks like you are moving along and he or she is growing like a champ! I'm glad you found a new OB that will make things easier then driving back and forth to Portland. Will you deliver at Southwest??? I think you will really like it if you do - our reviews from February placed our birth center in the top 3% in the nation! Patients are happy and we have such great nurses there... just my personal plug - I might be a bit biased though...
you look great!
You look fantastic! I showed early too, but that just means doors held open, bags carried and people fussing over you for longer. Hope you can try the VBAC. It's so much more freeing and enjoyable (can I use that word when talking about childbirth?) when you can feel in charge of the birthing decisions. By the way, love the pictures of your kiddos too. Your little one is getting so big!!
