Midwife visit!

So my midwife is coming to my house to check me over after having high blood pressure 4 days ago. Fingers crossed it's stayed stable! I don't wanna be induced!!

I have a midwife too and I live in USA, Idaho

I'm from the uk. In uk we only have midwives. If any extra care is needed we get referred to specialists :)

Okay, is a midwife your OB?

Thanks! :) and I know. It's just more heartbreaking to me because I so wanted a water birth. I've had millions of hospital stays in my years due to illnesses, and I know from personal experience being stuck in a bed is just stressful and irritating! I just so wanted to have the freedom! But never mind! I'm aware it ain't all plain sailing and aslong as my baby will be healthy, that's all that matters!

Good luck! Induction isn't the end of the world but you're right to try to avoid it!
