Baby Abby has arrived! *update*

Hey ladies !
I just want to give a huge thank you for all of your support over the last few days. It has been an insane ride, but Abby has made her entrance into the world!
They started me on oxytocin around 1 and also put a catheter in to open my cervix. Around 245 Abby's heart rate dropped and they stopped the oxytocin. She was good for a while and then again her heart rate dropped so they decoded to prep me for a c-section. I was a mess by this point since i had felt like I had jumped through every hoop! We just wanted her out and safe. So I had the section and she came out with a little cry (best sound EVER) and was breathing on her own. They put her on a machine anyway just to make sure shes filling and emptying her lungs properly. She is a strong 3lbs8 oz! She is perfection.
Now a new adventure begins as we get to know our fiesty little girl.
I'll be sticking around here with all of you for support and obviously updates!
Again, thanks for everything... I read every comment and every single one meant the world to me.

Hi girls!!
It has been a crazy few days! I wanted to let you all know Abby is doing so well. She was taken off her IV late Monday since she is tolerating breastmilk so well! She even took two full feeds from the boob which is unheard of at her age ! We had to top up through the feeding tube yesterday because they increased the amount but she still took some by breast! I am so proud of her she is such a fighter.
As far as I go, I have a doc appointment today and am doing much, much better. I'm in good spirits and am trying to soak up the learning from the nicu nurses. They are incredible. I hope you are all well and enjoying your pregnancies! It's weird knowing I'm not anymore.
