Well, I had my ultrasound yesterday. Libby grew from being in the 45th percentile to the 75th percentile in one month's time! Her head measured 41 weeks large while her body measured approx. 39 weeks and 6 days. She's already 8 pounds 9 ounces, and I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that my chances of a V-BAC are slim.
Harrison was 9 pounds 1 ounce and he was too big for me to deliver, so with Libby so close to her brother's weight already, I'm thinking that I need to start praying for either a miracle birth or just a safe delivery via C-section. Either way, all I really want is a healthy child.
With everyone praying for me and encouraging me, I feel so supported. However, I can't help but think that I would be letting other people down or some of my friends and family members wouldn't understand my decision if I opt for going for the C-section instead of attempting a risky V-BAC with the high chance of needing a "C" during labor and delivery.
My hope is that the decision will become clear when the time is right.
Gotta go; I have a LOT of thinking and praying to do.
Love,
Katy

I know this is much easier said then done, but try not to worry about others being disappointed. No matter how your little girl is delivered, she will be blessed to have you as her mommy :-).
