So I think I'm going to beg my

Sonadora

doctor to induce me.

I never thought I'd get to this point, given I have had a physically easy pregnancy and I don't really like the idea of induction unless medically necessary.

However, I just don't think I could potentially take another 2 weeks of this headache. I don't know that I can take another day of it. It brings me to tears several times a day. I feel really weak and stupid.

Don't feel bad! I think that's an extremely valid reason to ask for an induction. There's no point in you being miserable at this point...it's not good for you or LO. It definitely doesn't make you weak or stupid. *hugs*

You've gone through a lot at the end.  I definitely don't see any reason not to ask for an induction.  I couldn't imagine a headache that lasts for weeks - I can't imagine that it's good for you or your baby.  (hugs)

Yea, I've had the headache for a week and 3 days at this point. It's sent me into L&D twice. Tylenol, which I can only take twice a day according to the doctor, doesn't do jack for it.

Sigh.

Sounds medically necessary to me. You've had a rough last couple of weeks, and I think the physical toll on you has to be taken into account here.

:-( Hope you are feeling better soon! Please don't feel stupid!!  I can relate to horrible, drop you to your knees, headaches.  *hugs*  T&Ps are with you.

I think it sounds like your headaches are becoming a medically necessary reason to induce. If you are that uncomfortable then definately talk to the doctor about it because your pain can't be good for either of you. Good luck!

Sounds like a valid reason to me.  It's hard to function with a head ache...plus all of the contractions you've been having.  I hope your doctor agrees to it.  ((HUGS))

This.

I'm not a huge fan of induction either, but sometimes, to be frank, you gotta do what you've gotta do.  With my butt problems and contractions at the end, I would've sought out black market pitocin if I had to.  And I don't regret it, despite the long labor.

Nobody on this board is going to judge you for this decision. If they do I'll throat punch them for you. I've had migraines all my life and I understand the pain you're in right now. I've been having horrible 2nd tri headaches and I tell DH I might as well be throwing the Tylenol at my head for the all good it does.

Your in pain, uncomfortable, and your baby is fully cooked. Tell your doc to bring on the pitocin.

I completely agree with both pp. I think this is definitely a reasonable request. ((hugs))
