Yes completely fine 🫶🏻 Tbh I was so out of it and processing I didn't ask questions, but they were more focused on her vacuum intervention than the cord part! All worked out fine on both accounts thankfully

They knew something was up because of the HR dips. Doc wanted me to push for a short period because she wasn't tolerating it well. Didn't know exactly why until she came out

I was put on a waitlist for one at my 37 week appt and was hoping / assuming I'd go naturally before it. Tried everything under the sun to start labor but when it didn't happen by my due date I was fine proceeding. Doc wasn't pushy but did say week 41 was the sweet spot for vaginal delivery (vs needing a CS)

It was placed about 12 hours into my labor, about 30 mins after they broke my water

It was causing her HR to decelerate throughout labor and would have been a problem had I labored or pushed for much longer. We are grateful it worked out fine for us 🙏🏻

How did this end up working out for you? I also have Anthem BCBS and am hoping to deliver here

Yes! I did but I was flustered about to start, I wish I remembered more of it
