I'm being induced!

[ManicQueen]

Tomorrow I'm being induced at 6am! Woohoo.. I will finally be able to lay on my belly again.

The doctors don't want me going over 40 weeks due to the gestational diabetes I have... they don't want to risk me having to large of a baby.

I'll be sure to post pix when I get home.

Oh, yay!!!! Good luck! My best friend was induced this past weekend. Her son is 8lbs. 9oz.

I'll be thinking of you!

Wow, just 3 days ago we talked about gestational diabetes and why it leads to large babies. Interesting.

Hope all goes well!

[JaneDead]

[fallennon]

You can say that again!

I was a Bradley coach for a friend of mine. She ended up being induced at 5pm, and finally had the baby around noon the next day. She was only induced cause she was a week over due. Even then she was just not in any hurry to come into this world..

[Lilith]

alll i can say is epiderol :grin: makes everythng all nice n fuzzy

[JaneDead]

oh yeah an epiderol is just about necessary when you are induced too!

labor hits you so hard and fast!

i am quite happy though that when it came down to it i hardly had to push at all. my son was a c-section though (my first born). emergency c-section. that sucked too. oh well i am all done so no "normal" births for me.

[fallennon]

My epiderol didn't work. But I only had to push like 8 times...

[JaneDead]

mine worked and i only had to push a few times too with my one daughter. not sure how many times but basically had her within 20 minutes.

my second daughter- i had to HOLD HER IN. literally. the dr was not in the room yet and they did not want me to have her! so when i had contractions i squeezed to hold her in there! it was SO awful. so when the dr came in i pushed twice and she was out. that took about 2 minutes!!
