AFM - had my 38 week appt this morning and left pissed off. My doc offered elective induction at 39 weeks and when I said definitely not he said he's not gonna let me go past 41 weeks. Kiss my ass. They are gonna get mad if I make it to 41 because I'm still gonna refuse. There's no medical reason to induce so why do it?! To make it easier on them so it's scheduled? No thank you. If I haven't went on my own by then it's because he's not ready to come out. I had a whole list of questions to ask but didn't even get into that because I was mad. Ugh. I miss my midwife
On the bright side I'm 2CM now and 70% effaced and baby is slowly moving down. At the hospital Tuesday I was 1CM and 50% so while I hope he stays in til at least 39 weeks I want him to come before 41 so I don't have to fight with them about an unnecessary induction!

 

[No Doubt]

That's crappy, but sounds like baby is taking care of things in there and you hopefully won't even get to 41 weeks and have to argue. Fxd for you.

A huge congratulations Linz! So delighted to hear the good news! Enjoy this special time together

I hope all is well with everyone else!

Just updating this thread

My baby boy arrived yesterday 7/4/16 at at 1.44pm! Went into hospital around 3:30am after waking and finding bright blood leaking into the bed and on my clothes, once in toilet the blood developed into a bloody show... It was really scary waking and OH was panicking but I remained calm... While getting ready I was having painful contractions and once I got to the hospital I was 3cm but was told o could stay as second baby and things could develops fast! Thank god as I was desperate for painful relief!

The ward was super busy but to quickly round things up for now.... He was born in the natural birthing centre (with all my worries and fears everyone is super surprised and even me lol) I used only gas and air which didn't do much but just distract me a lil! My waters were broken by midwife 11 something I think.. Once I began pushing extra midwife had to come in... I had 3 lovely ladies to began with but baby heart rate was down for 8 mins! They were very concerned and literally had to scream at me to push as hard as I could whilst holding my legs back! I was given the Episiomty which helped him out... He came out not breathing which was the scariest few seconds of my life! He was in shock especially with his heart rate down but I'm so pleased my lil man is here safe and sound!

I was also discharged the same day lol... Really pleased as I could return home to be with my son

That was the most I could type out for now whilst baby laying on me... His not even feeding and hasn't latched onto my breast in ages! He just falls asleep on me and isn't even opening mouth

Can't wait for more births ladies and to to see who's next! congratulations to linz and no doubt x
