My water broke this morning at around 2:30 so we headed to the hospital. I hemmed and hawed for awhile about a trial of labor, but have decided I'm going to go with the RCS. So I'll be delivered once the morning team comes on! Please send good vibes our way for a safe delivery and healthy mom and baby!
My blood pressure is elevated (and was fine yesterday) but so far no symptoms of pre-e so they're just keeping an eye on it and keeping me hooked up to the monitors.
I'm really really freaked out - and sad that I didn't get the "last day" with L that I planned - but also glad I won't be stewing wondering how bad this might be for too much longer. And I'm going to meet D! Which still seems super weird and not quite possible, but is probably going to happen in the next few hours.

And she's here! Daph was born about two hours ago this morning. I was scared and cried but all went well. We are chilling in recovery now. She came out super angry and is peacefully sleeping in my arms now after nursing for an hour. I'm now praying I have a recovery as good or better than my first. The spinal this time vs the epidural was very odd, so I'm not quite sure what to expect recovery wise. So far, two hours in, we're well.

Those hand dimples! The best! You did such a great job and I really appreciate your honesty about being scared. Enjoy those snuggles. A c-section is scary! And so is anesthesia, for me anyways. But all went well. And I'm glad I'm the type of person who can tell providers - hey I'm scared and need to cry this out please. They were all SO great at helping manage my fear and get us through the procedure.

They were all SO great at helping manage my fear and get us through the procedure. It’s definitely scary. For me last time the spinal wore off about 90 mins after during the miracle hour. It is a weird feeling. I hope your recovery goes smoothly!

I love her cheeks! So squishy. She is beautiful.
With all the babies being born all of a sudden, it makes me wonder if anyone will have any babies mid-late December.

officedronette, I feel you on not getting the “last day” but I think this wound up being better for us. She woke up to a brother!
