in the hospital-pit induction -UPDATE

post #1 of 52
Thread Starter 
so i found out at the hospital my liver panel was messed up. all i know is the number it should be -around 30 has doubled. the MW is concerned i could develop HELLP syndrome. if she sent me home she worried i may develop other symptoms and i would have even more interventions for labor. so this seemed like the least intervention at this point. we thought about it and talked to some people and agreed we would start the induction. i just started on the smallest amount of pitocin. so in an hour we will see what happens. i am going to try and rest as i didn't sleep at all last night.

Quick and easy labor vibes for you! I have a feeling I'll follow suit with an induction, as well.

I hope you truly realize that it's not THAT bad. Induction is a perfectly okay way to meet your baby. I know it isn't what you wanted, but please keep it in the front of your mind that when you're holding your baby tomorrow, how he or she got there will seem SOOOOO insignificant. :

Try to relax... Let the pitocin do it's job, try to stay comfortable ("epidurals are not a cop out in induction", rinse and repeat as necessary), and let your mind fill with happy thoughts about how many of us are back here rooting for you!
