Will be induced next week!!

[momma_bear1021]

Hey all. I'm 36 weeks (37 on sat), and my Dr plans to induce me probably next week. I want this kid out of me and in my arms, but I don't want to do the birth thing again. Lol if only I could sleep the whole time!

Oh ok I'm asking because usually they won't let u be induced till at least 39 weeks.

[momma_bear1021]

It really just depends on the health of you and the baby.

It depends where you are Kitten, I'm guessing momma_bear is in the USA which is different than where I am in the U.K., here they'd induce you early so they could control your meds, but probably not that early, around 38 weeks would normally be the norm if you aren't in immediate danger. Labour hurts but believe me it's so worth it.

Its the same here, they don't typically induce until 39 weeks here in the US unless special medical condition

Why r u getting induced so early?

[momma_bear1021]

I have to be off of my blood thinner for 24 hours before I can have the baby and my doctor us leaving the 1st of the month and wants to make sure me and baby are taken care of by him before he's gone. I went into labor early with the last one and he is the only doctor I will have deliver my baby.
