Induction??? Imporant
Posted: 02-06-07 13:53pm

Ok... Im really starting to panic really badly.. My baby is due on the 11th of feburary and I still have no sign that he is coming..!! No change no bh no contratctions no nothing.. Well anyhow I have two dates where ill die if he is born on them. The 15th of feburary I had something terrible happen to me which I dont feel comfortable saying and on the 17th was the death of someone that meant the world to me..Would it be possible to ask to be induced before those dates.. Im really starting to panic.. I keep crying thinking ill never forgive myself if he is born on those days.. Maybe im sounding silly but I try to forget those days... I want his birthday to be only for him and special... Any advice???

You still have a week to go. Your baby may decide to come before that but you have to think about what is best for your baby. Just because you are induced before those dates doesn't mean your child will come before that. Sometimes inductions don't happen right away and they have to be done more than once. (i could be wrong but a friend of mine when in 3 times for an induction and each time they sent her home because nothing was happening.) I personally don't think inductions are nessisary unless it's after the 40 weeks and the baby still shows no sign of coming. Just start walking to encurage the baby to come. Its healthier if the baby comes naturally. Anyday that your child comes is a special day. But I hope that you get what you want.

Thanks hun.. I would rather not be induced.. I dont even know if my doc would do it.. He might only go with it because of my high blood preassure and the fact my finger tips and thighs have been numb for two week.. Nothing serious and no complications thank god.. But yes ill be 40 weeks on the 11th.. Im just praying hell come before the 15. I know it sounds so silly but I dont think I could handle his birth on those days..Lol I do really want everything naturally... Now im confused.. But thanks for the advice.. I think I may stay away from being induced

If you go over due, they may consider it anyway, but for reasons like you dont' want your baby born on a certain day might not fly with your doc.

But maybe with the complications, they may do it.

Good luck hun, I hope everything works out for you. Wink

Give it time sweety
i wouldn't strees right now, remeber your baby is feeling that to.
You plan for labor for 9 months and it still comes as a suprise cause you never know exactly when.
I hope everything works out for you and if it makes you feel better the good out wheighs the bad. If your precious child just so happens to be born on one of those days it will be a celebration of life and it will be your childs special day.
Good luck and keep us posted.
