mucus plug is out... Too much bleeding!!!! induce

Hi ladies. I lost my mucus plug, since 3:45 am this morning. I thought my water broke. I called the hospital they told me to take a shower and wear a pad then call them in 2 hrs. I called at 6am told them I am still bleeding, they asked me to go to the hospital to see if I am im labor. I went the hospital and they checked me, my water didn't break but they said the bleeding is more than usual.
..I am cramping too stronger now. It is 3:30pm. I am 2cm. The baby is fine but they monitored the baby heartbeat 3 times they said the baby is not giving them what they want to see. Apparently there is supposed to be a peak in the heartbeat when it moves but my baby's heartbeat is constant. Almost like it is too sleepy. They suggested to break my water so I can go into labor. But I am just not comfortable doing that. I just want my baby to come when it is ready. So after 9 hours I decided to go home and  not induce...I want to get some rest, I have a serious headache, as I habe been up since 3am. I really do not want to start labor this tired and it ends up im a csection or assisted. I just feel like they just want to get things done.

Any advise?

Yes mt baby has been moving normally. Heartbeat normal. They wanted the baby to be more awake but it seems to be so sleepy. She said so they can't determine some things, they said 'what happens when you are not feeling well? What do you do?' I said 'sleep' so they said 'right! It might be the reason why my baby is sleepy but they can't tell at 100%.

But as far as movement. It is moving right now even.

That Is great news! And glad your At full term already in case They do have to induce. Have You been feeling baby move still? That's The only thing now That I'd be concerned about Is movements... But I am a paranoid mommy So For That reason alone I Never would have left The hospital lol. Hopefully everything continues to progress and go smoothly! Keep us updated!

Thanks ladies. I am 39wk1d. So I am already at term. The main reason the doctor wanted to induce was because she said I may not be able to go into labor by myself. But when I told her I was cramping and the cramps are getting stronger and closer. She was more optimistic and said that I might actually go into labor by myself. But still suggested to induce. She said that maybe the faxt that I didn't get much rest of enough food could be a reason for the baby 'sleepiness' at the end she told me to go home rest and come back later at night so she can see the progress. So I am going back there in 5hours. Trying to sleep but the cramps are getting stronger. The bleeding is not as much.

I agree with previous poster. If The doctors told me The baby Is not showing them What they'd like to be seeing and wanted to induce I'd be on top of It. Especially If Ur having bleeding etc.  I know It's scary and Maybe stressful and I'm sure You wanted to go to full term, normal delivery as by The birth plan You wanted But in these situations We can't always go by What We want. A birth plan Is better off being unplanned Besides saying You definitely want an epidural Or If You want to go as long as possible with out It. We All worry about our babies and want them to come When They are ready But If The doctors believe The baby Is better off being born now Then I'd have faith in The doctors and The great man above and let them do What They feel Is best. There Is always a risk For babies born early But there's Also a risk For them to stay in When there are issues going on. The doctors can help baby better hands on Then They can If He's in your tummy unable to be monitored as closely. They have The tools, machines,  medications etc to do anything They can to protect You and baby.

I would have listened and done what the doctors wanted me to do. Whatever is the best for the baby. If the baby's heartbeat is a concern to them it would be to me as well so I would have stayed and just rested when baby is born. Hearing them be concerned would have been like a shot of adrenaline for me and I wouldn't rest till I knew my baby was OK.
