He said he wanted me to be 2-3cm, but he also said I probably am unable to dilate naturally due to my surgeries. My mom had the same thing happen and had three very successful births with a little help from the pitocin drip, which is likely what would happen with me, especially with the current position of baby and my progressive effacement. I'm not going to schedule a 'convenience' c-section for my doc's sake.

It's faster, it's less wear and tear on your body and you know the constraints of it. <br /><br />My induction took 3 DAYS before they finally decided they ought to get kid out of there and fast when it went bad...the failed induction put me at risk, Marianne at risk, and utimately bought me nothing but more recovery time cause then I had to recover from labor AND the section.<br /><br />The midwife here later told me that inductions that fail like that mean the baby wasn't meant to come out the normal way for whatever reason...in my case she told me that even with Marianne being average size (7 lbs) she was still TOO BIG for me to deliver, due to my tiny, Asian-inspired bone structure.<br /><br />Whichever way you go, I hope it goes well, and maybe you'll get lucky with all that irritation the exam caused, and Baby B will decide to blow the Mommy-pop-stand versus deal with cranky cervix.Xarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12153088513567525516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4406123004301272716.post-21354431246425952372009-12-14T15:38:49.924-06:002009-12-14T15:38:49.924-06:00I feel so bad for you!!

Let her know who's boss. LOL Anyway, I hope everything works out, and just stay calm, hopefully it will all go as originally planned...Lil Miss Butterbeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664335184407177190noreply@blogger.com
