Thinking about talking to my DR about induction since my son was born still at 36 weeks with no reason(we suspect the cord was too tight, only some evidence)... I still have a lot of time to think but I am getting concerned on how nervous I'll be once I hit 35 weeks...
Any opinions? Have any other moms went through birth after stillbirth? And what preventative steps did your doctor take? I am worried I am being selfish but I feel like it would be worse to stress at 36-40 weeks than possibly schedule an induction. And my doctor isn't very reassuring about preventing it from reoccurring!

I really doubt any doctor would take the risk of delivering so early without a medical reason but maybe you can talk to him about monitoring you a couple times a week to check on baby.

3-4 weeks truly isn't that early, and in my eyes this is just as important as a medical reason... Some people naturally go into labor that early. I was also thinking that , maybe stress tests more often? @swtlilangl

I know it isn't too early and I completely understand your reasons but I'm just saying to a doctor it may be a liability if nothing is wrong with you or the baby. So I think if he won't then the stress tests are a good compromise.

Good point, I didn't think of their liability! @swtlilangl

I'm sorry, that would be stressful/emotional. I hope your Dr hears you out and reassures whatever the final decision comes down to.

@mommaz thank you! I just hope whatever he tells me (yes or no) he has a better plan that lessens my worries.
