i have been having contractions since last friday about 10-15 min apart. i called the doc on monday and she recommended that i be induced that night. i went in and had cervadil for 12 hours. in the morning, i started pitocin and was on pitcoin for 12 hours. after 12 hours i was 2cm dilated and 75%  effaced which was the exact same thing i was at my 39w. (Excpet the whole time i was on pitocin my bp was through the rough) my doc today suggested using mesoprostol (sp).(won;t let me do pitocin again) i looked in up and it is not approved by the FDA for inductions and can cause mant adverse side effects. i have an us tomorrow because my doc is worred about the fluid levels. at this point i was to schedule a section. i cannot go through the pitocin again and i won;t use a drug nor approved bu the FDA. any advice? also i cannot go past tuesday because of office policy. help please!

    I'm not sure why you wouldn't just ask your DR what your options are.  What options is the DR presenting and then share those here and I think you'll get more valuable feedback.  I hope the baby decides to come on his/her own soon!!!
