You will be fine.

if they give you a date that's sooner than 10 days just try to rest so you have as much energy as possible for labour.

Have you noticed inductions are usually done at night? Like someone I know went in at 8pm the other day. I know someone also who went in at 10pm. I'd be shattered by that time of night. I mean I know it's probably so you sleep. But being induced won't they be faffing with you all night? Maybe that's just my hospital though xx

My induction was scheduled for 6am. But I'm in America.

I was induced and i found it to be fine. although i didn't have a non induced labour to compare it with but i coped just fine.

The motherly love yes for most people does come naturally the parenting is one HUGE learning curve lol! i know when i was in hospital left all on my own and dealing with my 1st nappy change i was all in a kerfuffle i didn't have a clue what i was doing but with a bit of practice i got there in the end lol x

Oh wow. That's really early! I think I'd prefer that though. I don't like hospitals much at night mainly because they are so quiet. It kinda freaks me out. Also I know this sounds stupid but I have a thing with knowing their is a morgue somewhere close. I know people die but I hate knowing I'm near them

I would imagine it would be more busy in the morning once it hits 7/8am though. I think I think about things too much.

Ehh, sorry I'm waffling now

I'm so glad I'm having a girl. I've not changed a nappy in years! When my brother was little (6 years ago now) I can imagine I'd end up with a face full of wee though

Are you kidding me?

How did you find that out? They weren't wheeling dead bodies past were they? I appreciate people die but I hate to think about it.

It took them until 8:30am to get an IV in me when we were supposed to start at 6am! 11 nurses and finally the anesthesiologist did it. Then I didn't give birth until almost 12 hours later at 8:11pm. would have been up all night, glad I was brought in in the morning.
