kind of freaking out about tomorrow...

So I am being induced.   I am not sure I want to go.

I am 41.5 weeks, am soft, have some effacement and dialation, but am not ideal as the baby is not engaged (ie- too high).

I just so do not want a c-section... and I am scared of something bad happening beyond this... with me or the baby.

i know it is natural to feel anxious and a little nervous.   I guess I just never felt like I would go into labor naturally, so I never really got nervous before.

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers tomorrow.   I have to call an hour and a half before to make sure I don't get bumped, but otherwise all is a go for an induction.

    Right there with you!  I'm scheduled for induction tomorrow too, but haven't even had the chance to see if I'd go into labor naturally!  I think it is totally natural to be nervous.  Talk to your nurses though.  I had an NST yesterday and talked it out with my nurse and felt a lot better.  I'm hoping I have a good nurse on duty again tomorrow when I get there so that I feel relaxed to help the process along.

    I am being induced Saturday, and I am freaked out as well. I am not even dilated and I will be one day shy of 42 weeks! Not the best situation for induction, huh? I really wanted to have a natural birth in the water at the midwife center, too, so going to the hospital to be induced is really starting to scare me. 

    I would prefer not to have a c-section though, so I am just trying to focus on the positive. Regardless, I finally get to meet my baby.
