5 days over today and induction scheduled

in 3rd Trimester

I really hope that I can go into labor on my own before Wednesday morning, but if not I guess I'll get another induction at 9am. 

Dr appt today and only 1 cm dilated but cervix is soft and ready.

Here is hoping for labor to start on its own tonight!  I'm making chicken fajitas and might have to toss some extra spice on mine to get things going! lol!

    Good luck! My sister ate an incredible amount of pineapple today in an attempt to get things moving, hopefully the heat works for you!

    You should look into Castor oil if you want to jumpstart labor. I don't have personal experience, but it's in my arsenal of tools if I go over my EDD.

    @ 2u2wow: I'm more afraid of pitocin!

    BTW, Randa, ask your doc before trying Castor oil.

    Oh no way would I take caster oil! My dr specifically begged me not to do anything crazy like that with my first. It's just messy and causes dehydration. No thanks!

    keeping fingers crossed that I can have this baby SOON!!

    My money is on you going into labor on Tuesday!

    I was induced and I loved my entire labor and delivery experience.

    Good Luck!

    I was induced with DD1 so I'm not too worried about it.  It just seems surreal to know for sure that I will have a baby no later than Thursday!  weird! lol
