Sry Sept mamas im moving to the August DDC induction is scheduled!

edited August 2011 in August 2011
Well I went to the Dr this morning wanting to talk about induction cuz I'm so done being pregnant (35 weeks today). Well she brought it up 1st! Basically here's some background first. I have MTHFR which is a weird blood disorder that makes me high risk and I've been on blood thinner shots my whole pregnancy. My son is growing so fast he's literally torn my stomach muscles apart (its called abdominal separation) and my skin is tearing causing excruciating burning/bleeding and nothing is helping ease that pain. My cervix is changing as of today I'm a finger tip dialated my cervix is really thin and ripe. I'm at 0 station and 50% effaced. Needless to say I'm on bedrest cuz of it. Well its unlikely I would carry my son to Sept 6th his actual due date. My Dr wants to induce me so I can come off my blood thinners just in case I need a c section its less likely I would bleed out and possibly die. She said "so do u want to induce?" Of course I said heck ya! So she scheduled me for August 23rd! I'll be 38 weeks then. She also thinks I won't even need pitocin just the cervadil cuz my cervix is so thin already. Were all just hoping he stays put until then cuz if I'm still on my blood thinners ill be forced to have a completely natural birth cuz anesthesia won't give me an epi. Either way we are soooooo excited! Can't wait to bring Logan Daniel King into the world! And I get to be a mommy sooner rather than later!!! Sry just had to share my story. And sry I'm leaving my Sept mamas to join the august mamas :(

  • :( I'm due the 6th also. U so freaking LUCKY!
  • BUT I WISH U LUCK
  • @Color_pink0923 hey bringing up induction isn't a bad thing. Ur Dr might be open to inducing u and it never hurts to ask. What's the worst that can happen? They say no?
  • Good luck, so lucky! Im due sept 1st n I want him out before that too! Dr says he is going to b at least 8lbs, maybe more, scary!
  • Due september 5th but dr says i probably wont last 2 more weeks! Looks like we will probably have a august baby as well.
  • @letysfirst ya me too! My boy is over 6.5lbs already. I just hope he's not a 10 pounder lol. I swear babies now a days r bigger cuz of all the hormones and preservatives in r food lol!

    @eaparker Aww yay! R u being induced too or r u progressing on ur own? I think they r off on my dd anyways lols.
  • I'm due Sept 10th and being induced on Aug 22nd at 8pm due to high blood pressure. Wahoooo. We might have our babies on the same day!!
  • @Misssunflower Aww yay congratulations hun! I'm so excited, this is my 1st. Hubby is more excited tho lol he's been on the phone all day after the appt telling everyone "my son has his birthday scheduled" lol he's too cute. What r u having or is it a surprise?
  • Not being induced had to go in yesterday for contractions but not dialating yet. Dr said she is ready and cervix is sensitive.
  • @kingsmama we are having a boy! I think my husband feels a bit sick over it! Haha. After the doc came in and told me he went very quiet and didn't talk much on the way home. Poor bastard! LOL! What are you naming your LO?
  • @eaparker lol I had the same problem last week! Then this week I started to dialate. Hopefully ur lo stays in until u are ready hehe. I'm tired of being pregnant. I mean its been fun but he needs to pack his bags and get out lol. And when my Dr checked me today I started bleeding after and was having contractions about 10 mins apart and I freaked out. Thankfully after about 2 hours they stopped and the bleeding has gone down a lot. She said it was cuz of the exam and my cervix is swollen and sensitive.
  • @Misssunflower lol why did he freak out? I though a guy would freak out more over having a girl than a boy. My hubby was sooo excited he called everyone when we found out and said "ya I'm having a son! Look at the us pics u can see his junk!" Lol men....they can be weird! And our lo will be named Logan Daniel King :) what r u naming ur lo or r u still thinking about names?
