I’m getting induced Thursday morning if I don’t go into labor by then. Got checked today and I’m 3 cm dilated and 80%…

You're welcome. Best of luck

Yes good luck. And I hope you have a safe delivery!!!

Thank you me too I also had hypertension with my son along with my liver shutting down and he will be two in January

@mommysbabies, I’m sorry to hear that. Glad that you and your babies were fine.

My liver shuts down

@mommysbabies, holy shit, you were a big baby.

Why can’t u carry past 37 weeks? If u don’t mind me asking.

Could have been worse I was born two months early and I was almost 10 pounds I actually will never get to carry past 37 weeks

@mommysbabies, damn. Could u imagine how much they would have weighed if you went to 40weeks or more?

My daughter I got the steroids my son I did not they we both 7 pounds at birth

You're welcome. Best of luck

@arivera64, thank you. I think I will do that.

@cheyenneelizabeth1716, hope that works for my baby.

@mommysbabies, that’s refreshing, I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

Yes good luck. And I hope you have a safe delivery!!!

I had my son at 37 weeks and my daughter at 36 neither had a stay in nicu hope this gives you some relief

@lamonicafrost23 I had one of my son a month earlier and they gave me three shots to help build his lungs.

@lamonicafrost23 ahhh I see. Well with good reasoning I can understand that. Maybe you can ask about a steroid shot? Just in case.

@lamonicafrost23 I'm being induced at 38

@arivera64, it’s due to my history of hypertension.

@arivera64 hmm my doctor says 37.

Also as an ambassador it is my job to be nosey to an extent if I see things on the app that go against the rules @larubia2723

@larubia2723 I'm an ambassador on this app and so I am fully aware of things that mom life considers to be spam and this is one of them. Commenting on people's posts asking them to click links to help you get money is spam.

I've had several ppl do it with no problem

@arivera64 no is not hunny

BTW I'll keep u in prayer everything will be fine ma don't worry

@larubia2723 this is spam. You can get reported for this.

Why do they feel the need to induce before you are full term? The fact that you're that dilated and effaced is just going to make your natural labor that much shorter because you're already progressing. I would decline the induction if it isn't for a medical emergency.

@shaneen32, I have a history of hypertension. My bp has been good but the doc said it’s best for me to be induced because my bp could skyrocket at anytime and it would be dangerous for me and the baby.

@cheyenneelizabeth1716 the standard for full term has been changed some time ago. Full term is at 39 weeks.

@larubia2723, what is it?

@cheyenneelizabeth1716, I know but I’ve been reading up on it and I see a lot about the babies lungs may not be fully developed. I’m just worrying myself.

Your considered full term at 37 weeks
