To induce at 39 weeks or wait
At 33 weeks I was told my amniotic fluid was 6cm...really low. By being on bed rest, cutting out caffeine and drinking 5 bottles of water a day, I have been able to increase it to 11cm. My doctor said I am no longer considered high risk and she is ready to schedule my induction at 39 weeks. I told her I wanted to go to 40 weeks, which she is fine with. I want to experience going into labor naturally. With my first, I was induced at 41 weeks. I'm debating just biting the bullet and getting induced at 39 weeks. Are you ladies with healthy pregnancies getting induced at 39 weeks, or waiting. If you are waiting, how many weeks will you give your baby before you get induced. My dr doesn't like to let her patients go past 40 weeks. She said she is surprised she allowed me to go to 41 weeks during my last pregnancy.

Ive been debating the same thing! I still dont know what im going to do. My first i was 40 weeks and tore soo bad because he was big
This one is measuring bigger then my first so im scared to wait the full 40 weeks!:( idk what to do! The midwife said she suggests 39 weeks because he was already measuring 6lbs 60th percentile at 34 weeks!!
I was induced with both of my boys and will be induced with this baby at 39 weeks. My doctor agreed to it because my husband is deployed and my mom will only be visiting for a short period of time. I would rather not go into labor and be all alone. There is definitely nothing wrong with waiting though :)
I got induced at 39+4 cuz my son was measuring large. I was wanting a smooth vaginal delivery and was concerned about a shoulder dystocia or needing a csection. I'm ultimately glad we elected to induce. My delivery went really smoothly and I had only a tiny first degree tear despite the baby being bigger than even the ultrasound estimates (9lb 9 oz).
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
As long as my cervix is thinning at 39 weeks my doctor offers induction and I will be doing it! I don't want him to come any earlier and definitely don't want to have to wait longer than needed as long as he is healthy! That's all that matters is baby's health so if dr thinks you are okay to induce I don't see an isssue!
