how can I get induced early?
Okay . My mom is 300 miles away. My boyfriend mom is in Mississippi I was wondering if I could ask my obgyn if I can be induced on a certain day so they could both be here when we have iur baby girl.
Any advice ladies?

Honestly you might deliver before then so I'd ask doesn't seem to be too big of a difference
An NO ONE was bashing the military at all. so please ladies get your panties out your crouch.
I had my first one with military and they induced her a week early cuz she was measuring small. She turned out a very healthy baby. It just all depends on your dr and what they think is best
Thank you ladies! I am so glad someone else understands! I hate when I see posts when people don't care about the military. I guess because I was raised to respect anyone who sacrifices his or her life daily for me, and then ended up marrying into it! I wish you ladies ladies the best of luck with your pregnancies!
Agree with the military mom's completely.
When my cousin was born 11 weeks early my uncle was in the Navy. He was thankfully at the birth, but his superiors did not want to allow him any special leave to be with his wife and daughter who was in the NICU. Unless you have that lifestyle you will never understand what these families go through.
Honestly I feel that being induced just so your mum can be there isn't a good enough reason. Just let baby come when they are ready.

I agree, princesslo. ^^ my husband is also military and though he will be here for the birth, he's leaving soon after. Also, my mom will not be here. NONE of my family and friends will be. I'm all the way in Germany while everyone else is in the states. Here for three years, a year of that on my own without my husband. With a baby. I think your comment was a little uncalled for, we all tried helping and giving you advice. Her "excuse" is plenty good enough of a reason, and honestly, yours would be the silly excuse if you're going to be rude and compare. Like she said, your mom could be there in 5-6 hours. She'd most likely be there for the birth, if not very soon after. So inducing so she'd be there to girls who have a lifestyle like us, seems silly. But we didn't say that or make you feel bad. And you turned around and made a pretty bitchy, uncalled for comment. Not very cool.
Maisah93 my doctor is inducing me because my husband is military and we have a cross country move days after my due date and since we aren't going to be in Tricare west and changing regions (not by our choice) I have to deliver at our current base. She has induced for deployments where the father was going to be gone for 14 months at a time... I mean its not like I want to be induced but when my doctor said its in my best interest of me and babies (esp when she has been through the same situation) I trust her. I'm sorry that you don't think that the people who protect and defend you everyday have a good enough reason to watch their children being born.
I really hate when people bash on the military. Unless you are apart of the lifestyle you truly cannot comprehend the sacrifices these men and women make to defend you. My families been 1,400 miles away and I haven't seen them in months. My family along with my husband's won't be able to meet my son until he's at least a month old if not longer than that.
Youre lucky to have your mother 300 miles away, because if she left when you started labor, she probably could make it in time for the birth. I would kill to have that.
And for the record, I did not say it wasn't a good enough excise, I said my doctor wouldn't consider it a good enough excuse. Everyone's doctor is different though. You not having a military doctor might be more sympathetic of you wanting your mother there. I know mine would laugh at me if I said that which was why I said what I said in a previous comment.

My friend was due on the 24th of December a few years ago and she asked the doctor to induce her a few days early so she wouldn't have to be in the hospital on Christmas and they did it
I dont think leaving dor military is a gone reason either. but thats just my opinion.
Anywhos.
Ill talk to her about it. If not ill try inducing labor natural 3 weeks before due date.

My doctor will start elective inductions at 39 weeks but it has to be a really good excuse for her to do it. Something like moms being there wouldn't cut it with her (military doctor so no ones mom is really around)
Best suggestion is to talk it over with your doctor at your next appt and see what he/she says.

My doctor's office sets an induction date for all mothers at their 40 week appointment if they haven't already gone into labor. Yours may be similar, so it wouldn't hurt to bring it up earlier. It sounds reasonable if you don't go into labor before that. Good luck!
Oh ha that's understandable then. Wouldn't hurt to ask, it's only a day before. But still, there are risks of inducing which is why they usually only do it for medical reasons. Just talk to your doc.
My due date is December 24th I want to get induced on the 23rd lol so it not that early. Lol
What is "early?" How many weeks will you be when you're wanting to be induced?
Most doctors will not induce unless there's a medical concern. It can be dangerous for baby.
