Delivery early?

samantha2k15

I know best person to speak to about this is my midwife/obestrican but is it possible that I could be delivered early than my due date?
Ideally i wang a natural birth but recently i have been having second thought with Reason being is that I am.epileptic and so far during this pregnancy I have had daily seizures and grand mal seizures which am concerned the further I get closer to my due date I will have more large seizures which will affect my baby. I am only 25 weeks just now and every time after a fit he does kick and move around.
Has any one been in this situation have u been given or made to go before your due date?

This is something you need to discuss, in depth, with your doctor, not with an online forum. Even if someone here IS epileptic and pregnant, everyone's medical history is different and doctors recommend different things for different people.

Even if you do get well-meaning advice on this here, please don't heed it. Please discuss this with your doctor instead.

I asked my doctor if they ever induce early and he said they will offer it to me if I am 38 weeks and have a cervix that will likely respond to an induction (2-3cm dilated). But I don't have any medical issues, so I would ask your doctor about what they would do for you. They might let you go earlier

I'm very surprised with your history of seizures that you aren't a high-risk case seeing a high-risk specialist who would have already discussed these types of things with you. My family has a history of seizures (including my mother) and I know how serious they are.
