I am going to BEG for an induction today. With tears!
I cannot believe I am still pregnant; I am so miserable. How is that even possible?! Why on earth haven't I gone into labor yet?!
I no longer answer the phone and my facebook is a wall of well meaning posts from friends who are like, 'oh, go for a walk'. FU! What the heck do you think I do all day? Sit around??!
My induction is scheduled for July 12 (2 weeks and 2 days after my due date) because my doctor doesn't believe in less than 2 weeks. I will definitely be finding a new doctor for #2. At the beginning, when the OB told me about the 2 week wait, I was like, whatever- that won't be me! HA!
2:45 today- wish me luck on the begging! Or better yet, wish me into labor already!
Re: I have hit the wall.
I'm so sorry. Cry. Beg. Do whatever it takes! Make them miserable
Hang in there!
Oh I'm SO sorry. When you go into the office really exaggerate the waddle and grimace while doing it. Hold onto the wall for support ect.
I hope he'll induce you.
I know how you feel. My EDD is this thursday, but all I have heard since I came into work today is Wow you are still pregnant?! Yes MF I am! She is not done yet! Yes it's hot, yes I am tired, yes I am walking, yes we are having nookie, not that it's any of your GD business! Ugh! I am going to ask for an internal tomorrow - hopefully I will get some encouragement. As for these fools and their "help" well...what can you do right? I guess it's mostly all out of love.
BTW there are plenty of natural induction methods - try out your brest pump for about 15 mins - that's what I am going to start on soon!
Keep up with me @ Koala Fuzz
Seriously - this is what I would do! I would refuse to leave the office until they caved.
She is 42.5 weeks according to her ticker. To OP... I don't blame you! Holy cow. GL!!
Good luck on your induction. I'm getting there too. I'm 41 weeks today.
My midwife is sweeping my membranes today, then I'm going home to try the breast pump. If nothing happens this weekend, I will probably get induced next Tuesday.
We wanted to go natural so an induction is not in "my plan" but I am getting VERY sick of being pregnant and all of the constant calls/texts/e-mails/FB messages. People keep asking "when's that baby coming?" If I knew, don't you think I would be doing something about it?!?
Ah, venting helped
This is a post from 9 days ago, ya'll.
It's your body, and its your baby they should not be making you go more than 2 weeks overdue unless they think they are waaay off on your dates. Demand an ultrasound so they can estimate the size. I was 10 days over due with my first, had a to be induced and he was HUGE! 9lbs. 7 oz. I told my Dr. at my last appointment I will only go over due three days. I'm due on Thursday and if this baby is not out by Sunday she can expect to see me on Monday AM! She said that is fine! Good luck. Hopefully while I'm writing this your experiencing major contractions!
Amy, #2 on the way! EDD 10.7.10 - ITS A GIRL!!!
