Induction tomorrow morning... Advice??

Pat_gina · May 2014

I am anxious, nervous, excited, all kinds of emotions going on.... Doubt I will sleep a blink tonight. FTM, am 41wks and due to elevated BP I am being induced cause baby girl has not made her appearance yet. I have to say, I am saddened I am not naturally going in to labor, it is a bit upsetting.

For mothers that have been induced is there any advice, or how does the procedure work?? I will be given pitocin and last checked, last week, I was 2cm dilated. It is truly my fault for not asking more questions to my dr, but honestly I assumed I would go in to labor.. And have her before even coming close to induction date.. Eeek!

Any words of wisdom, advice, or experience would be so greatly appreciated. TIA

Eat before you go in because once you are there they won't let you eat or drink until after your baby girl is born.

Seriously? Every other thread here lately has been about induction. There are tons of threads with advice. Here's one from the top of pg. 2:
