UPDATE: Baby born @36weeks! Been @Labor and Delivery since 2pm yesterday!

edited October 2011 in Pregnant
I went to my scheduled doctors appt yesterday, my BP was high and I had a massive headache. I was 2cm dilated when they checked me, the doc was surprised bc last Friday I was closed and thought that me dilating so fast was a sign of pre eclampsia. Well they ended up keeping me and are inducing me!
I thought they would let me rest and start me on something this morning....WRONG!
They started me on the magnesium and pitocen last night. They checked me in she middle of the night and I was a 3. I was able to sleep through my contractions, and they gave me my epidural and I slept like a baby. The only thing that has sucked is having to be on my side, to make sure BP stays down.
Well....right now I am here waiting for doc to break my water. Hopefully I have dilated more and we can get this show on the road! Please pray and send labor dust I am 36 weeks and just want her to be ok!

    About the pressure ( which is the key word! If you mention pressure or the feeling of needing to push or poop....they will check u every time) they checked me again, and she told me to push w/ the next contraction bc I still had a little cervix left......and than she said its time to push!
