In mama's words, "She went into full blown distress half way through the induction so I had an emergency C section. She's in the NICU now because of fluid in her lungs but otherwise all looks good. It was a emotional ride but thanking God for her."
Congrats @notasycophant!
I had been feeling contractions for a week, but they weren't consistent and not painful. After monitoring me for an hour they decided to move me to triage. Things seemed to progress quickly and they were soon setting me up with an IV and checking on the babies via u/s.
The ultimate reason why the emergency c section was scheduled was because I had just had my DD via c-section on 1/17/15 and they were very concerned about uterine rupture. It ended up being the right call because my doctor and all the nurses said they had never seen a wall so thin. They told me you could actually see the baby moving around and my Dr barley needed to cut to get her out. Thank god because it would have been awful if I ruptured.
Lucy Charlotte was born at 1:41pm weighing 5lbs even and 18 1/2" long.
Joey Jr was born at 1:42pm weighing 5lbs6os and 18 1/4" long.
Both are in the NICU but are breathing on their own. I was able to hold them late last night for the first time and loved every second of it!
I also officially have Irish triplets, and for the next 3 days I actually have 3 kids under 1!
Thank you for reading!

p.s @acmw21 If it matters so much to you, by the time the Anesthesiologist got to my room I was already dilated to 10cms and pushing, so I spent 10 mins getting a novelty epidural, which never kicked in anyway. Do I get a sticker? Nope. You don't get any special prize for enduring more pain than the next girl. If I would have known how fast this baby was going to come I would have asked for an epidural the moment I walked through the door of the hospital.

i was found to have mild preeclampsia Friday and Sophia went from transverse to full breech. So ended up going for a c section that evening. Arianna was born 6lbs 5 oz and 19inches long. Sophia made her arrival 2 minutes later at 4 lbs 15 oz and 18 inches. Neither needed NICU and they have been rooming in with us.
GIRL!!!
Our little lady arrived on Friday, Jan. 29th via C-section. She wasn't breathing at first but they got her going almost immediately and she is happy and healthy. She's 9lbs, 5oz and 21" long. She's nursing like a champ! It took us about 32 hours to name her but we finally settled on Maggie Clare. We were team green and I was shocked when they said girl! We are overjoyed.
Will type out the full story and link it soon!
Here she is! Big brother adores her, too.
congrats to all the other mommas and all the best to the ones still waiting!!
