Wednesday, April 5  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
So, looks like I'm going to have my baby either Wednesday or Thursday. I went to the doctor on Friday and I'm still having HBP issues. I have also had a previous abuption and I have a blood clotting disorder. Anyway all this to say the doctor thinks we are just waiting around for something to go "wrong". And I agree with him, this whole pregnancy has been perfect (up until the HBP thing) and I couldn't believe it. So now I'm 39 weeks and he thinks it might be best to induce on Wednesday. I really didn't want to be induced this time (was induced both my other pregnancy's) but I understand his reasoning and actually feel good about the induction. He checked me on Friday and I'm 2 cm but not totally thinned out yet and a bit posterior, but I've been walking and taking more EPO and I told DH we were going to have lots of sex but just hasn't happened yet! LOL

I would love to go into labour on my own in the next few days, we went for a long bumpy ride yesterday, but still nothing.

Seriously though, I am ok with the induction, I just have to realize that I can still labour how I was planning, without meds/walking around because they won't go to the drip unless nothing else is working.

I've always laboured over two days so that's why I say my baby will be born either Wednesday or Thursday

Thanks for reading!

I'll be thinking of you, thirdchild! With #1, I had a similar situation and the doc planned to induce a few days after my due date; and labor started the day before! Hope that happens for you. Keep us posted!
