@lawsondeaja they stopped my contractions and was going to induce but decided to just let her come on her own whenever she decides to .

yeah god is good u still in labor

@tericah2013, that’s got to be hard. I remember when I was facing weeks in the hospital hours away from my oldest I was shattered wondering how I could go without seeing him for a long time. Harder on us than them, he’s probably enjoying himself!

@jack.ass thank you ! baby is definitely doing well so i don't mind her baking more just wish i could see my son while im here

I have to say that is refreshing to see doctors trying to get baby to full term. It means your doctors are up to date and ensuring your baby gets the best possible start in life. As long as you and baby are well, it’s best baby bakes. A day baking inside is equal to a week of development on the outside.

You’ve got this mama! Great work!

@tericah2013 honestly can't blame them. I don't think most doctors would make you stay in bed in the hospital for a week. And you should check if your insurance will cover such a long amount of time because he is asking for anywhere from 9-12 days in the hospital...i don't know where you are located or your insurance but mine wouldn't cover it. And you can refuse the extension and request to be induced now as it is still a plenty reasonable request. But all of that is up to you just know your options and do what is best for you and baby girl. :)

@heilwife317 my family is saying the same thing but thank you i am definitely ready to hold my daughter its all worth it .

@tericah2013 well I'm sorry. I understand having her go as long as possible but when you are already halfway and already 38 weeks I just figured it would make more sense to go ahead and have her. Well prayers for a quick week for you and soon you will be holding your baby girl and that is all that will matter to you. :)

@heilwife317 he said he rather baby bake as long as she can because i went full term (40 weeks) with my son and he doesn't want me to leave because i would probably have her at home , so yes they want me to stay for a whole week😭

They want to keep you just laying in the hospital for over a week? That sounds crazy & expensive to me. Why is he/she waiting for so long to induce you if you are that far already?

@whitmom2be18 thank you so much, needed to hear that.

You’ll get through this ! And when you do , you’ll have an awesome story to tell
