~*~ February Flowers 2014! ~ 37 Babies Have Arrived! ~*

Booked my induction for 8th Feb today.
Sweep was another failed attempt cervix too high and closed she couldn't reach it.
Absolutely gutted and terrified, all ive heard are bad things about inductions.
Ill be 41+5 when they start me off x

If it helps, my induction went quite smoothly, if all but a little bit long! She was a forceps job in the end, but that was more to do with her dislike of being squished during contractions and me pushing, rather than me being induced. She could have well had to be a forceps job had I been left to go into labour naturally.
What is it that you're scared about happening? x
 
I was induced at 41+ 5 with my second baby. It went really well had the gel and then they broke my waters at 4 cm hope it goes smoothly for you too ;)
 
I have never coped well being induced, so that is why I am trying to avoid it as much as possible.

Dancer hopefully you don't' have to wait too much longer for your u/s

My induction wasn't bad but I pushed for 3 hours bc he wasn't engaged when I was induced.

Baby is still breech so I'll be scheduling my c-section for sometime next week. They have to call me with the available dates. Bummed bc I've had two vaginal births and now need a section but know it's out of my hands and what is best for her.
 
Wow ladies, I haven't checked back in a day and so much has happened!

Neversaynever- good luck hun!!!

Mamabear- I hope things started for you during the night!!

geordie_gal- can you decline the induction? I was induced with my first (my waters went but after 48 hours no contractions started) and while I'm hoping to avoid an induction this time, it certainly wasn't a 'horrifying' experience. I've heard lots of really positive induction stories!

3xBlessed- do they 'allow' you to attempt a vaginal breech birth at your hospital? Good luck with planning the c-section though :flower:

Still keeping my fx'd for the rest of you ladies in or near the 'overdue crew' !!
 
Nothing happening here :coffee:

Katie..I asked my MW when they could do sweeps and she said we could ask from 38 weeks so its worth a request :thumbup:

I was induced the first time too...it's not all that bad...honest :flower:

Good luck ladies...bring those February babies home!

Xxx
 
Itsychick even if they did allow it, I wouldn't be interested. She would be butt first and folded in half!
 
So got into the u/s and baby is all good!

But now I'm pretty sure my waters are going! I felt a little gush earlier (soaked through my pants) but thought maybe I just had to pee and didn't realize it haha. So put on a pad and have since soaked it through w clear fluids that don't smell like pee.

Of course the snowstorm has intensified and my dr office is closed :( waiting for the on call dr to call me back. Slightly panicking that I won't be able to get to the hospital (roads are bad) but excited that this could be it!

Dancer that sounds really good you will be next, though I hope you are able to get to hospital.
 
Sorry I am just getting this update up now but things have been crazy. Baby BOY James Brendan arrived January 30 at 2:27am. I was induced Tuesday night and had him vaginally on Thursday. He weighed in at 8lbs 4oz and 21.25inches long. It was tough and a crazy story but i wanted to share my news with you ladies.

Massive congratulations! Woop!

Dancer - yey with any luck your little one will be here soon!

Girls can I pick your brains? Sorry if it's tmi but just had really bad diahorrea and then a whole lot of discharge! Do you think it's getting closer? Really don't want to go over!
 
I think my labour is close.
I could be wrong but I dunno I have a feeling.

Congrats Capemaylover!
And good luck dancer!
