Our dear friend Chia text me at 1:30 this morning with painful contractions coming every ten minutes. By 3:00am they were 3 minutes apart and with the snowstorm hitting she decided it was go time! She's just been admitted to L&D and is currently waiting on her epi.
Let's send
@chiawombat lots of positive vibes and good luck! Love you and can't wait to meet baby Wombat!!
Update 1:
Just heard from Chia. Her water just broke and she's at 8cm but unfortunately there was meconium in it. She's waiting to hear back from her OB but it sounds like a NICU team might be brought in. Let's send some extra prayers and hugs her way.
(((Chia)))
Update 2:
Chia welcomed her daughter to the world at 7:55cst and no NICU team was needed. Baby and mom are doing great and the girl has some amazingly squishy cheeks! I'll let Chia do the sharing of pictures and all that jazz. Happy Birthday, baby Wombat!
