So yesterday I FINALY got the go-ahead from the doctor to induce. Pessary went in at 6pm last night. Had nothing until 3am and then the contractions started. They were very frequent up until about 11am, and now they’ve calmed down but that could be because I haven’t been very active - my pelvis is limiting me a lot :(
I have an examination at 6pm and fingers crossed that’s when they’ll be either inserting another Propess
Or popping my waters - baby is head down but unengaged, so the dr has said if my waters are burst by a midwife I’ll need another midwife to guide and hold the head in the pelvis to make sure baby goes into the right position.
I’m exhausted but so excited!
And yes, my worries were warranted about my UI making the contractions even more painful - because they’re horrendous!
 
I'm glad you're finally getting induced! it's been a long week, week and a half...
 
Hang in there, we are all cheering you on! Youll be meeting baby soon ❤
 
Thank you ladies!
Unfortunately babies head dropped lower and tucked the cervix behind it - just had a VERY painful procedure to untuck it and they’ve used now used the gel.
Contracting every 2 minutes and my goodness it’s painful!

Fingers crossed she’s here soon!!
 
Oh, gosh, you've really had a rough time of it with this baby! :hugs: I hope that sweet little troublemaker is here by now, or will be soon. I bet a screaming newborn is going to seem like a real break compared to the last few months and this induction drama!
 
Baby Emilia was born 18/7/18, at 9:41pm, weighing 8lb2.
Worth every minute of pain and trouble 😍😍
 
WELCOME BABY!! holy cow was hoping for this update. x
 
Thank you ladies! We're all totally in love with her - especially her big sister, Aoife.
And I definitely forgot how exhausting having a newborn is! :lol:
Emilia has been monitored by SCBU for the past couple of days because of medication I was taking during pregnancy, and so far she looks perfect. Fingers crossed we're allowed home today!
I've attached some photo's because who doesn't love a newborn snapshot?! :cloud9:
