Induction fail - going home

ballygirl · October 2013

After 3 days in the hospital trying to induce, they are sending us home. Very little progress softening my cervix and it's still closed. The doctors aren't too keen on an elective c section at this point and babies are still ok in there, so we're going home and returning tomorrow night to try the whole thing again.

I'm so bummed out to leave the hospital without babies and I don't see how coming back tomorrow and trying again will make a difference. Ugh- what a huge let down:(

That's hard, I'm sorry

It's refreshing, though, to hear the Dr's aren't pushing for a C.

I'd send you on a massage/pedi day if i could but instead I'm sending good vibes

I'm sorry you're disappointed. But keep those babies cooking

and hopefully your cervix will have some time to ripen and you get a vaginal birth

My 3 day induction fail turned into c section after my kidneys shut down and I started going into pulmonary edema from the pre e !

I sorry, that has to be so disappointing! But big cudos for picking a doctor who has the patience and humility to accept that it isn't working and to give your body more time. Hopefully relaxing at home another day will be just what you need to make next time a success!

sorry. They will be here soon. At least u get to take it easy at home for a while. Those L and D beds were hell for me.

Sad face!!! Glad your drs are trying to keep in mind what is best for your body and your babies. Hang in there. Praying that your cervix opens up!!!

So sorry! You are awesome for still trying to avoid a section. Good luck today and tomorrow! I hope those babies decide they finally want to come out before going back!

So sorry you have to go home without babies.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I'm sorry hopefully by letting your body have a bit of a rest it will be more cooperative on the next go.

I'm sorry! Thinking of you and hoping tomorrow goes better.

That is a bummer. Hopefully the next attempt goes much better and you get those babies in your arms soon.

My SIL carried her twins to 40 weeks and they both needed every day of it, so I know it sucks, but maybe your los are just cooking until they need to.

It won't be long! Sorry for the disappointing few days.

What a bummer! I echo all the pps tho - good for you and your doc for doing what is in the best interests of the babies. Hang in there momma!

Wow, your cervix needs a good talking to.

Hopefully you can get some rest to ready you for round 2.

The good news is that every day your babies cook is another day that they are growing bigger and stronger! I'm sorry your induction failed. Hopefully you will have better luck next time!
