In serious need of advice. My doctor told me today if I don't have my baby by the 13 he can induce me on the 20th I'll be 41 weeks going on 42 by then. This whole time I've been saying I'm not going to get induced because I don't want to do anything that could up my risk of c -section also because I've read/heard contractions are harder from picotin because your body doesn't have time to build up they just hit you all at once. That said i am in so much pain I would love to just have the baby and my in laws are going out of town the 23rd and they'd love to have the chance to be able to see her before they leave. Ugh I'm so torn on this it's making me sick to my stomach. Idk what to do!! I'm just gonna pray baby girl gets here on her own before I have to decide

It's best not to go past 42 weeks because it can be bad for the baby. I was induced with my first and yes it hurt but I did it without pain killers and didn't have to have a csection. It's actually the combination of pitocin with the epidural that make a csection more likely. Just know that you did everything you could to wait but after 42 weeks you really have no choice and there is nothing wrong with that. Good luck!

My personal experience is do what makes you happy! I did with my son (my second) until I had an emergency c-section. I never got to experience labor with my daughter (my first), I had a c-section with her (not by choice). I tried for a VBAC and I went into labor on my own, my contractions were starting out every 1-2 minutes apart, my body didn't build up to the full on labor part, it just went into full blown labor. I was good to go until the next morning I got up and the monitor had slipped off my belly and his heart rate was to low. It turns out he had flipped himself in the transverse position and has the cord around his neck. My point is just because your induced it wouldn't up your chances anymore than normal labor. I begged to be induced at 39 weeks and they wouldn't. Do what makes you happy girl, unless there's an emergency! Oh another tip my doctor gave me: "Have sex! What put him or her in there will get him or her out!"
