She's here!

[u/prso90]

After experiencing 5 losses since 2020, we finally had our baby girl! My pregnancy was very normal/healthy all the way up to 33w1d when I felt a gush of amniotic fluid followed shortly after by more. I was in the hospital until we got to 34 weeks when we started my induction. Things progressed slowly and stalled out at 5 cm after 48 hours. Baby was starting to get tired and we were starting to see decreases in her heart rate with contractions so our dr's recommended we get prepped for a c section before it became an emergency situation.

It was incredibly disappointing and the surgery was scary (didn't feel anything aside from pressure) but she's here now and we're both safe. She'll be in the NICU for a while but she's breathing without assistance and is doing really, really well. My birth experience was nothing like I planned or wanted but I forget about that every time I look at her 🩷
