Hi looking for some encouragement or similar stories. Labored for 24 hours, babies heart rate only dropped once with pitocin, and was born with umbilical cord around his neck. He didn’t cry at all and was rushed to NICU. They said he was breathing on his own and heart rate was good. They did supplement some oxygen. Doctor said her had hypertonia and HIE and was having seizures. He’s currently doing the cooling treatment (almost 24 hours in) and EEG. No seizures today and vitals are good. Heart rate did drop and needed stimulation earlier today. APGAR went from 2 to 8. Any similar stories? Thank you in advance
