My water broke at 1am last night. I'm 36 weeks and 2 days and terrified that it's too early. In l &d now and got the epidural too. Our baby girl has a heart thing that needs to be monitored so nicu and pediatric cardiologist have been notified. Please send your thoughts and prayers that she's ok. So scared.

ETA: Ms Zoe Eleni arrived at 3.15pm yesterday after just 5 pushes and under 10 mins. She's 5 pounds and all her vitals were great. She's breathing on her own but still in the NICU. Unfortunately our fears about her aorta showing a narrowing were real and she most likely will need heart surgery before she's released. They did an MRi today and we are waiting to talk to the cardiologist tomorrow for a full prognosis. Also her very rare structural abnormality in her aorta has been in the past linked with a chromosomal abnormality that causes a syndrome called DiGeorge. So we are testing her for that too and hope it comes out negative. A lot to take in and my husband and I are still in a daze but we are already so in love with her. Thank you all for all your thoughts and prayers. We definitely need them all.
