CrameCrame
in October 2011 Moms
So doctor decided to induce and we thought it was going to be today, but they are full.  So I am scheduled for tomorrow at 7am.  Any tips or advice for FTM going in for induction?

    I was induced at 8 pm on Sunday, October 16 and didn't have DS until 2 am October 18 so bring things to read or do.  You can only watch so much TV.  We brought scratch off lottery tix and magazines.

    Eat a great big meal before going to the hospital.  It may be days before you get to eat again.  Akso, have DH bring snacks for himself bc he`won't want to leave your side, but probably won't be offered any food from the hospital.

    Let your family know that it may take awhile-my parents sat in the waiting room for 19 hrs waiting for DS to arrive!

    Relax.  It was a great experience for me.  Try to enjoy the process if you can.

    Bring hard candies and music. Don't be afraid to speak up if you have concerns or needs. Good luck and congrats. :)

    This is really great advice.  I was induced at 8 am Friday and didn't deliver until Sunday at 11am.  It was a long couple days!

    Be very nice to the nurses - it really helped!
