well ladies she is here! Hayleigh made her arrival Tuesday evening at 9:47 pm. She weighed 6lbs12oz. I came into the hospital with bad upper right belly pains, and when I came in my blood pressure was 210/105, and stayed high. After doing blood work we determined I had preeclampsia, and had to deliver immediately. She is in the NICU for some help with breathing and a mild case of pneumonia, but hopefully we will only be in here for 2 weeks max. She is down to 6lbs3oz now, but it's good because she is losing the extra fluid she was retaining. Overall, we are doing well. Things could be a lot worse, but it's so hard that I can't even hold her yet 
I am pumping and preparing for her first feed, they can't feed her until her lungs are working better. I ended up needing a csection because even though my little peanut had flipped head down, I was only dilated to 1 and they couldn't induce me. If I was dilated more, they were going to try to break my waters and see what happened, but it's for the best she came how she did, despite how bad I did not want a csection again. But recovery this time is much better than my 1st, I must say. Anyways, just wanted to post a little update, will update later with more pics and everything.
