I have babies really fast. 6 hours with my first, 55 minutes with my second. To say I am petrified about what's going to happen this time around is an understatement. My docs plan on inducing me at 39 weeks, but I'm scared that I'll go early and end up birthing the baby at home and alone. Anyone else experiencing this?
Re: STM+ fast labor and deliveries
I understand that it is really best for the baby to come on their own and all that good stuff, but there are just so many variables, I am really hoping I need to be induced at 37 weeks again.
Thankfully DH works five minutes from home, and we're only 15 minutes from the hospital...I just don't know what we're doing with DS come D-day; we don't have a sitter, our one friend who's willing to sit is moving about 40 minutes away, and MIL (the relative who lives closest) is also a good 45 minutes away and doesn't own a cell phone.
Edit my EDD is November 8
I am praying for a quick delivery this time! 12 hours on the nose from start to finish with my first...I just hope for anything under 8....
Also, to freak you all out even more...anyone catch this baby born in car video that's been circulating??! Now this is scary!

And the shakes--I had totally forgotten about those--or you know, conveniently pushed them out of my mind (along with a ton of other things I'm sure)
I'm afraid to go into labor on my own at home since I do dilate quite quickly .
