Thats exactly what happened to me. My dr scheduled me for induction, and my contractions were so intense. I had to get epidural. That time I thought it was a blessing but now I think it was a biggest mistake I made
My issue with being induced is mainly just the fact that they are putting chemicals into my body which isn't natural. It can also make contractions more intense (which can lead people to need an epidural which in turn can increase risk of c section or tearing). I stated above, I haven't even taken a Tylenol this pregnancy, I don't like taking man made medications. I am set to be induced friday because as of right now baby is six days late but my plan is to have them break my water instead of going straight to medicine and see if that gets things started.
Guys, whats wrong with being induced? Is it not safe? Please details
Today is Dec 27. I am 40+2. I haven't dilated at all either. Lots of Braxton hicks some days but nothing serious. Go back to doc on Monday. Wondering if he will schedule me for induction. Really want her to come on her own but whatever happens is out of my control at this point. Good luck ladies
I'm due in 4 days. 2cm dilated %50 effaced. constantly feels like I have to have a bowel movement. but I don't. having contractions but they aren't regular but hurt pretty bad. hoping I go soon or will be setting an iduction date on wednesday :(
I have a stubborn baby as well. Due yesterday, nothing but BH contractions. I wonder if my body understands that it's go time now. Induction on the 1st.
I will be 40 weeks friday the 26 thats my due date. Im not dilating at all yet either. Just look at it this way just be happy that you dont have any problems with the pregnancy and when the babys ready he/she will come, being induced is a common thing the drs know what there doing so you shouldn't have to worry.
I feel everyone's pain. I will be 41 weeks and 5 days tomorrow. I will be induced tomorrow. I didn't want this, but I want my baby boy here so bad. So if this is how it has to be, I guess bring it on.
I know! I dont like medicine in the best of times. I haven't even taken a Tylenol this pregnancy. I really dont want to be induced. Got checked today and I am 2 cm dilated for the third week in a row. Due tomorrow.
That's what I'm afraid of I don't want to be induced. I'm set for an induction on the 31st. :(
Due Christmas and have been two cm dilated and 50 percent effaced for two weeks. Doctor tomorrow so hopefully I have some progress. If not I am set to be induced on the second
Todays my due date as well and no baby yet :(
Same here 40 weeks 2 days .... This is really sad.
