[quote=Anonymous]I had a love/hate relationship with my pregnancy and a traumatic birth that ended in a C.  I say love/hate because even though I was sick and miserable, I was happy to be pregnant, and especially once I could feel movement I did think it was special.

I'm kind of glad it ended with a C because now if I do it again I'll schedule a C (no interest in VBAC), and I've only heard good feedback from friends who've gone that route.

On the pregnancy front, my sister had two pregnancies, same sex babies, and WILDLY divergent pregnancies.  For one she was sick all the time, her skin broke out, her hair fell out, it was ridiculous.  For the other she had the earth-mother glow, felt like a goddess, the whole shebang.  She was convinced it was because the second baby must be a girl and only boys made her feel like death, but it was not.  Just a complete crap shoot.  It might not help you but I'm hugging that anecdote to my heart as I consider going for a second in the next year or so.[/quote]
