Induction

so how many are you getting induced? Is it for a medical reason or just anxious? And how far along are you??

I might get induced next week. I'm 38w6d, and my doctor is suggesting I get induced because he will be on vacation during my due date. If I get induced, my daughter will be here 4 days before her due date. I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do. I'll be talking it over with my doctor tomorrow.

I really don't want to get induced because risk of c section but I'm so depressed I can't sleep and I bawl my eyes out every other hour. Plus I've been puking everything up for the past three days. Throwing up here and there in total for a month and a half. I'm 38 weeks 4 days.

I was induced on 11/14, a week past my due date, and my little man arrived the next afternoon, 11/15. It was a long process (27 hours), but soooooo worth every second!

I am so jealous of all of you that are being induced just because you are anxious or your doctor is going on vacation. My Doc won't do that and I been super depressed my whole pregnancy. Just know you are all very fortunate because some people don't have that luxury.

I'm getting induced on Monday (I will be 40 weeks 2 days). The only reason my doctor is inducing me is due to medication exposure. If it wasn't for that I would choose to wait for her to come on her own.
