I am beyond depressed and frustrated.

I was still only 2% but 70%
She stripped my membranes. But there was no blood. :/
Basically wouldnt let me leave without scheduling a c section. A week from Monday... 7:30am. I know I could still go before then. But DAMN IT! I am soooo mad and frustrated! I feel like this whole thing is being ripped from me and I have to be cool with it! People keep saying "all that really matters is that the baby is healthy!" Wtf!? What about meeeee!? Why does it not matter if Meagan is healthy?! I dont want to be stapled shut taking care of 3 kids...in a 3 floor home! I dont want to have to have my first days home with my baby be on painkillers.
I had a vbac before with a 9lb 5oz baby. Why are they making such a huge deal this time!!? Its because Im fat this time around... why that matters, I do not know. Its really discouraging not to have the confidence from my drs!

I have one last option... which could likely result in c section anyway...
I can be induced at a different hospital...thats further away. My family would be far...
But they keep telling me the risk of rupture and they have me scared stupid over it!

I dont know what to do here! Ive just been bawling since I got home.

I dont understand why they are not giving u the option to choose and making u sign up for something u dont want..at the end of the day it should be ur choice..however they say that if u r not in a good shape and gaines lots of wwight u wont be able to push and might not be able to get the baby out..who knows and with the age it gets even harder...however that should be ur choicr they should be giving u an option and if u want natural u should it if there are complications thats when yhe urgent csection should come in place...hopefully u will get a vag and everything will be fine.good luck :))

Good luck babe. Iv been rooting for you since the beginning.  I dont want you to have a crappy experience. I hope she comes asap, but if it ends in a section,  thank god we have that modern option.  Either way im grateful there are alternatives like this today.  Keep us posted and fingers crossed for you.
