Aa
pissed off
I was supposed to be induced today at 6:30 am they told me I have to bcuz of my preeclampsia. But even before we get there they called and said they have lots of patients and can't take me in. They want me to call at 12 to check if there's any available room for me. I was like wtf. I really dont have any choice but cope up with this hospital since this is the only hospital in the city. Wow... If they really think I'm high risk over my pre eclampsia that right when they found out about my result they wanted to induced me doesn't that mean Its considered emergency? Now they want me to call them round 12 just to check!!! I asked about tomorrow they said not sure but maybe this Friday. Wtf?!
Thank you mommas! On our way to the hospital to be induced! Finally. & thank God! pray for us :)
Forgot to mention I was induced due to preeclampsia as well, not a nice thing at all :(
I had a similar situation. I was booked in to be induced that night as doc didn't want to wait at all. Ultrasound, blood work and other things were done. I spent the night in the maternity ward. They changed their minds and I didn't end up getting induced until two weeks after. My partner took the week off to be with me incase, we saw the doctor and he said he would wait one week to get me as close to possible to my due date. So my partner went back to work for a week and then took two weeks off the day I was induced. It was such a pain because it cut into his leave when they originally planned to induce me! I'm not gonna lie , it was extremely fustrating but now I look back, I understand why these decision were made. It made us both and my family worried sick for two weeks not knowing but we got through it and bub is as healthy as can be! He's only 3weeks old :) try not to stress out lovely, just keep an eye on yourself and if you're feeling to off, head into emergency and get checked out? Wishing you the best x
If there are no beds, there's nothing they can do. Would you prefer they begin your induction and have you sit in the waiting room? I doubt it.
Pre-eclampsia is not a joking matter, but it also isn't an emergency at this point... unless you freak out about this small bump in the road to the point of YOU causing your own blood pressure to shoot through the roof.
As babies are born today, rooms will clear out and you can be admitted. There is no reason the flip out. Just call every now and then a red mitered see if if there is an open room.

Thank you for answering my question in a nice way although I know it sounded dumb. Anyways as if I have time to do that but whatever. I am thinking they already let her know since she's the one who resched my appointment with her today. Yes. I was supposed to meet her but they said I have to be induced. Now I guess back to just normal appointment. She wants me to go in at 12. What pisses me off the most one of the reasons I'm gonna be induced today besides my condition is bcuz she's gonna be off the whole week next week and not gonna be in tomorrow and even Friday. Shes like a part time I guess. She doesn't work 24/7 like other doctors. Ughhhh
Ur seriously asking me if I'm serious? Well guess what? I am! Why? Pre eclampsia is no joke and can you blame me if I'm just worried about my baby? That's why I'm asking but you know what maybe I am asking a dumb question cuz I am just a worried mom!
No, this isn't a reason to sue. But I'd call your ob that you see on a regular basis and tell them you got bumped from your induction and you are worried about your preeclampsia. They may be able to make a call or two to help you get in faster. good luck
Umm, no, you can't sue because other women are already in labor and your schedule got thrown off. Seriously?
Do I have the right to sue them?! Cuz FTS! Everything is ruined even my family's schedule! Now we don't even know when I'm gonna be induced! Ughhhhh!!!!
I'd be ready to snap. I hope this doesn't happen to me next week. Hopefully they'll have a room for you soon!
I knooow... Can't really do anything but wait for now :/ I'm really disappointed and upset! I want safety for both of us specially my baby!!!!
I know right. Idl how to keep an eye about my bp since I don't have the pump or the electronic one but then again I'm trying not to eat lots of salt. But the fact they're doing this to me is stressing me out. Means high blood pressure again:/
I don't understand this. I was induced with my daughter and didn't have to call or anything. It was set up just like a regular appointment. I'd be annoyed if I was expecting to be induced and then they said they didn't have room for me.
Ugh, that's annoying. I would be frustrated too. They scare you about the preeclampsia and then say 'never mind'. I wonder if that many women are just going into labor so there are no rooms but geez. You can't have it both ways-- is it an emergency or not? I'd keep an eye out on your blood pressure hon between now and Friday. peace
