Baby Update: 38 Weeks

Yesterday was my growth check, and I made sure to tell them that I would be seeing my doctor the next day, however they didn't send the results to my doctor. So I had my exam, but really he had no report to look out.

I told him she weighed in at 7 lbs, and he said it could be off by a pound or two. I have to go back to see my doctor next week, and he wants to induce me. I will be 39 weeks on Wednesday, he said I can be induced Thursday or Friday. I think he's going to set it up with the hospital. I will find out next week I suppose. Fingers crossed, all is well.

My daughter was induced 6 days after her due date. The petocin, which causes the contractions, made the labor excruciatingly painful. I had an epidural, but even that didn't help much. I started the IV around 11 AM and I gave birth at 5:30 PM. I just hope to go into natural labor.
