I went into triage at the hospital I was planned to deliver at (repeat c-section) because Ruby wasn't moving like she should. She wasn't moving when they were monitoring her either, so they moved the c-section up and did it at 1 am February 16th. Everything went great and she is perfect. She was born at 1:52 am, 6.5lbs, 19.5" at 38 weeks, 3 days.
We are doing well and we should be going home today. I have a heart-shaped uterus and they ended up having to cut my uterus vertically, so if we get pregnant again in the future, I am not allowed to labor and they have to take the baby by 37 weeks.  We are taking a break for a while (if not forever) so we'll just leave it in God's hands if we decide to ttc again. I am in pain of course, but this time I didn't labor first, so I feel much better overall.
My mom said Ruby looks just like me, and everyone else sees it too. Wesley is a mix of DH and I, so it's pretty cool having a little me.
Here are some pics I got up.
I feel so blessed, I can't even express how happy I am. I felt empty, like a family member was taken from us or died when we lost our last baby. Now I feel whole. I pray every day for you TTAL ladies, and I hope you all get your rainbow babies too. Thank you for all of our support!

I took them (except the c/s one). Thanks. I'll get better ones when we get home. I am kind of doped up, haha.

She is soooo gorgeous. I am so happy you have your rainbow baby now.
BTW you look awesome after having a csection! haha. I looked awful after mine but I had also went through 26 hrs of labor. I know yours was scheduled.

Well, it was supposed to be scheduled, lol. She came a few days early because she wasn't moving. She was delivered at 1:52 am. Wesley was an emergency c/s after natural labor, so I know how hard that is.
