We need some good vibes!

Hi Ladies! Turns out that I have developed pre-e and I will be going in for an induction tomorrow night! I am not "feeling" like I have pre-e, but my protein is high, and my bp has been higher than my normal. I am trying to wrap my brain around an induction, it was something I had really hoped to avoid. Miss Layla needs to come out before I get "sicker" and the only cure is delivery. Up until now, my pregnancy has been pretty uneventful, and it is just kind of disappointing that things have taken this turn.  

I am scared of the cascade of interventions that usually accompany an induction, I had hoped to go med free and just let my body do its thing. Honestly I am mostly scared about a "failed induction" that results in a C/S. I do admin work for a Labor and Delivery unit, and I know that our stats indicate that almost 50% of inductions turn into C/S. I am not delivering at my hospital, but I doubt that we are out of the norm. 

I would appreciate any positive vibes and T&P's that anyone would like to send our way. I just want a healthy baby and any way she wants to come out is ultimately fine. Thanks for reading, I'm not trying to AW, I just need some good vibes or some more successful induction stories. Even a get over it, a C/S isn't that bad reality check would be appreciated!

Yikes, sorry to hear about your pre-e. best of luck in your induction, and I've been reading the birth story forum and there are definitely positive induction stories so maybe that will make you feel better too. Good luck, can't wait to hear about LO's arrival!

Lots of good thoughts to you and LO for an easy induction! My sister was just induced this summer for pre-e with her second and the induction went over really, really well. I hope that yours is just as free from complications!

Sending good vibes your way. At least you found out now before you do get more sick. Here's to a healthy baby and mom!

I have had two positive result induction with very healthy little boys. It is frightening but worth it. The ultimate goal is healthy kiddos and if am induction does that so be it! I am sitting around waiting just for a reason to be induced. My bp is borderline and fluid levels borderline. Just waiting for a reason to get this baby girl out!

I hope all goes well for you and you are able to have the birth experience you want.

I have a few friends that were induced and none ended up requiring a C-section; I hope that's the case for you as well. Good luck.

Good luck! A healthy baby is most important, no matter how it gets here!

Sending good thoughts your way. I know many women get induced and have great deliveries without much intervention. I hope you are one of them!

Good luck! Ts & Ps for a smooth delivery and a healthy Mama and LO!

Good thing they caught it! I was induced with DS, and while it seemed to take forever for things to get going, in reality it was a very smooth, textbook vaginal delivery. Try not to worry to much! Best wishes!

Good luck and lots of good labor and delivery vibes heading your way!

My SIL developed pre-e late in an uneventful pregnancy too. She had hoped for a home birth and couldn't do that, but still labored med free after an induction, without a c-section, so it's possible! Sending so many good vibes to you and hoping you have the birth you hoped for a a sweet baby in your arms soon.

Thank you so much ladies! I appreciate all of your kind words and well wishes! I think they are starting to work, I'm getting excited that we will get to meet our sweet baby Layla very soon!
