You should be induced and have your baby asap. This was me a few years ago birth is the only way to solve it
Any good news when you went back? Did they decide to induce you?
Completely agree about the scar thing those girls crack me up ..... I am extremely nervous about whats going to happen tomorrow hopefully the best outcome is what happens I love my son and cant wait to have him in my arms

First of all, this scar issue is laughable. I have one and it is so tony and faint I don't even consider it a "scar". If anyone csnt get over that, they are childish.
As far as your situation, you both will be okay. I have severe preecclampsia at 32 weeks and was in the hospital for 10 days before they decided to deliver my daughter. It is very scary...but no one will let harm come to your baby. Preecclampsia is pretty common and there are many different levels of it. Most importantly stay calm and healthy. Definitely push to speak to your dr or get a second opinion.

Omgi had the same thing with my first son and they induced me immediately i was like 35 or 36 weeks. Hopefully u and baby are safe
I had the same thing with my last baby. I was 39w5d. My Dr had me go the hospital the same day. They tried for induction with a cervidil but I wasn't dilating. I had c section the next morning. The scar isn't that bad. But if I were you, I would Maybe get a second opinion because the higher your blood pressure gets, your baby can get stressed and they should be monitoring that. Good luck!
I have to go back to the hospital at 10 am tomorrow i hope they figure out what they are going to do and I hope they schedule a c section or induce me asap I need my son to be ok I dont know how ill be able to live with myself if something happens to him .... been having nightmares and severe anxiety I cant sleep and I am really depressed lately. ... I need my son to be ok I dont care if I need a c section I will live with my son being my reward for the surgery and the scar .... I know alot of people well young females who get pregnant and they say if they had to choose themselves or their baby they would choose themselves and how their lives would be ruined if they had to get a c section because then no man would ever want them. .... its a scar knowing you saved your childs life who cares if no man will want you after that reality is your kid will always want and love you no matter how many scars you have and maybe not many girls realize that but I sure do and im willing to do anything for my child

You should always be able to ask for for a second opinion. You are far enough along they can induce, or schedule a c section and baby should be fine. I hope that everything turns out well. Keep us posted.
