Still in this awful battle.

Last night I laid down in bed and I could just tell it wasn't going to be a good night. I got up thinking maybe I just needed to go to the bathroom and I would feel better. Nope! I ended up throwing up for half an hour. My husband helped me get washed up afterward and I went and laid on the couch. Couple hours later found me in the bathroom again with it coming out the other end. Finally I was able to get some sleep after that. Thankfully my doctor had given me some medicine for pain issues I'd been having from my frequent bathroom trips.

I had my glucose challenge test yesterday morning. Sugary sweet drinks and HG don't mix! I was able to keep it down but just barely. I didn't want to have to redo the test. I pray the results are good since I'm not sure I can handle drinking that stuff again.

Talked to the doctor about doing a vbac and he was 100% for it. He was actually glad I'm going to try it! It was reassuring to have support from my regular OB office since I have to go to a different one and also a different hospital. I've decided it's better anyway since the other hospital has a NICU and my regular one doesn't. Since we've had some concerns over baby's health I just feel safer that way.

OK just thought I would give a quick update. Back to (hopefully) sleep for a while!
