OT. our baby girl! :) I was induced yesterday morning due to high bp at 38 weeks & 2 days.
High BP My BP was high-ish at my checkup today. 138/87. It's been on the higher side the last two appointments. :-/ He wants me to come back in on friday for another BP check.
Please help! My doctor is trying to induce me before 40 weeks because she's going to be off on my due date and says my placenta is starting to look old. How do I get labor started?? I don't want to be induced for no reason and I'm thinking I won't have a choice. Please help. What do I do to get things going?
Admitted in labor & delivery due to high bp, excessive swelling on face, feet, ankles, legs, hands and severe headaches "sign of preeclampsia" doc wants to wait anotherrrr week to induce me. Bed resting until then 😩 im beyond exhausted!!! Oh.. And that's my mother in the background 👯
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her own when she is ready to come ! As much as I am anxious to meet her and have her home with me, those last few weeks of brain development and lung maturation means so much more to me! I'm hoping and praying that things turn around, and I don't have to get induced. I'm surely going to talk to my doctor about it Thursday when I go back.

I think that's a reasonable line of thinking... I would want to wait also!

I just don't want to be induced if there is no reason medically. I want to go into labor on my own if possible. @beebaby

i know. I'm glad my husband and I are on the same page about all this stuff. He was actually the one to say hey we should think about the induction cause he knew how much it bothered me when I found out they wanted to induce me at 39 weeks.@beebaby
