Induction
Well first I will talk about last night. I was completely uncomfortable all day and tried to get an appoinment/ I had one today, but….Yesterday would of been better. So I called and they told me to go into L&D and see what they say. My Midwife stripped my membranes and said that if I really wanted to,she would set me up for an induction. Seeing how my body didn’t seem ready, I told her no and that I would talk to them today about what my overall options are.
At todays appointment Midman checked me again and there was no change. So, we set up an induction for Saturday morning. But on Friday night I have to go in and get my cervix rippened. He gave me two options. One was having a balloon inserted into my cervix with a cathader. They would send me home and then I come back in the morning. The second one is a cloth that is soaked in something that is placed in my cervix that also softens it. Both are as effective, so it really didn’t matte which one I chose. I decided on the second one since it seemed a little less invasive.
So my week looks like this. I will go to work tomorrow and Thursday. But on Thursday I will get off at 1 and then I have to go to MFM for monitoring to make sure that baby is ok to wait a couple of days. If not, they will start it on Thursday. Then I start my Maternity leave on Friday since that is the day of my induction. Sean, Jade and I will get up and have breakfest and then we have planned a day of family activities. Then it is BABY TIME!!!!!
