Born via c-section Monday at 12:59

I woke up at 5:45 with regular contractions ~10 minutes apart
Knowing she was breech last week with complications, I called my Dr. and we went in for an ultrasound. She was still breech, nuchal cord, and I had really low fluid. I was 4 cm, so we went in for a section.
By 11:45, I was contracting 2-3 min apart, and we were ready to go.

She was 37 weeks, 2 days
5 lbs 13 oz
19 inches

My Dr. was wonderful and did a double layer stitch so I could have VBAC as an option in the future.
I am recovering well, and although it is not the birth I wanted, it is overall a lot better than I expected :::

Yay! I'm so happy that everything went well. And good to know that you had a wonderful birth despite the circumstances! I may be losing my homebirth that I planned... so it's encouraging to know that I can still have a good birth.
