Can Anyone Tell Me Any Tips 2 Safely Induce My Labor?!
Posted: 05-09-06 20:33pm

Okay, i'm 37 weeks pregnant, i'll be 38 thursday. I am getting very miserable. It seems like there is no end to this pregnancy. Today when I went to the doctor they said that he isn't even in the right position, and when they tried to turn him around, he wouldn't. I'm on bed-rest because of swelling, so I can't try walking. My sugar is high so they said hes going to be a large baby anyway, he measures 39 weeks instead of 37. But they won't induce my labor. Someone help me~

Especially when you just freely admitted in another post that you're "clueless" about this stuff.

I'm sorry for your predicament, but I don't think there's anything you can do to safely induce labor. If your doctors refuse to do it, there must be a reason. Try to enjoy the last few weeks of your pregnancy (although that may seem impossible right now). It's worth it to have a healthy baby.
