Shld i induce??

[Juz17]

first one due to low in amniotic fluid. induced at 38th week.
second and third due to low in baby's activity (in case risk of cord strangulation). induced at 37th week.

all cases recomended for induction by my obstetricians. They assured me that it was safe and ok to do so since 37th week is considered full term.

Go with what you gynae says... but usually they would leave the decision to you if it is not for strong medical reasons.

Now my gynae dun do scanning le...i oso dunoe tml go see him for wat? Maybe take antibiotics n dha...i dun get to see my bb in scan...i go there he only measure my tummy n hear my bb's heartbeat. N he will only check for dilation next week...so....how would they know if low amiotic fluid or wat? Sigh since bb is growing, his movement oso quite restricted...so i oso dunoe if his movement is lesser than usual or nt...hw would gynae noe??

I only know some mtb are asked to take antibotic because of GBS so that they won't pass it to the bb through natural birth. Not sure is ts asked to take because of that reason

Hi, i was induced due to amniotic fluid getting low during my 39 weeks checkup.. Well mine was the subsidised section so i dun get to do scanning on every checkup.. I still remember around my 38 weeks checkup or so, i ask the female doctor tat i wanted to noe my baby's weight coz it's been sometime since i done scanning, noe wad the doctor replied me? She told me wait till baby is out u will noe the weight.. I feel like slapping her seriously.. Lol.. Thank god during my last checkup was another female doctor and she was kinda nice.. She arrange for me to do a scanning and tat's when she told me my amniotic fluid is getting low, suggested me to induce.. Hmm just sharing my experience wif u.. I got inserted 2 pills and it was only until the 3rd day den i was able to give birth.. It's ur choice to choose whether u wanna induce anot.. Many will definitely say let ur baby decide when he/she wanna come out unless doctor suggest u to induce

During my 37 weeks plus I also couldn't wait for her to be out . So I got admitted but wasNt even dilated. So me and hubby plan on my Edd just go admit and induce if she's not out. I also felt no contractions at all.on my Edd they put the ctg on me and I was having constant contractions but felt nth so went gynae came. I was already 3cm dilated . Within 9 days to be exact . Walk more and do squats. It really do help. After admitting. They say if water bag no burst then induce. I admiited at abt 130pm. Started bleeding at 3pm. Bear with the pains of contraction . Like menses cramp. By 1045pm too pain. Went down labour ward. 4cm dilated and water bag burst. Relax myself and took epidural . With 2 hrs 8cm dilated. Don't stress urself. The more u get tensed up, baby feel it, u get harder to dilate. Just relax. Ask baby guai guai. Relax urself. Very fast dilat then no need c-section le!

Dun induce...if u can give birth in a natural way, i dun see y u wanna induce. I wanted a natural birth, but when i went for check up on my 40th week(due date)...asked to scan for the baby's heart telegraphy, it's abnormal. N doc wan me to admitted immediatly...i really felt like rejecting! Ended up induced(extremely painful) + drip...for 14hrs finally gave birth to my 1st one. Really bad experience...my hubby see already also scare. He telling me he dun wan another kid, cos he dun wan to see me go thru this again. =( But...but...i really wan to experience the very natural way to give birth, cos giving birth is the ability tat only woman hv...

So u went hosp on yr 37 week n went home? Then 40 week admit straight ah?? We admit first b4 calling our gynae if no signs is it? So u also din felt anything though u shld b feeling the contractions ah? I scare i will feel the same too cos now at 37 week i felt nothing...sigh...

I guess its not easy being a woman. Anyway u delivered yr baby the natural way already! tats a gd job done! Induce for medical reason for yr case is a must cos 40 weeks already. I will take yr experience as a learning pt here.. take care...

 

[PTB7476]

what is GBS ? It seems like the same reason...

GBS is Group B Streptococcus. it is a kind of bacteria that can affect baby esp during natural birth that is why need antibotics...but in some case normally doc will give the mtb option to C sect

:tlaugh: Once you birth you will miss when you r preggy with this big tummy..

so agree.. i miss my pregnant belly so much now i always find myself looking at others' pregnant belly with envy..

especially wen i'm feeling fat.. LOL.. coz being preggy gives me an excuse to be fat.. and wen u are pregnant or heavily pregnant, i always feels like people are extra friendly, kind and approachable to me..

[aadenalexis2008]

allos juz17,
its kinda strange ur gynae doesn't do scan for u every visit. Hve u tried asking for it?Usually if ur under package, its included inside. Anyway, i won't advice to ask to be induced if theres no serious reasons. In a way, a reputable gynae will know when should u be induced. For my case, when i had my first boy, my gynae adviced me to be induced as my boy showed no signs of wanting to come out even at 39th wk, so in the end we chose to induce 2 days before 40th week.

I know its not ez during then last lap, but just hang in there ya? Im almost at 37weeks now too , always perspiring even aft bath, also not sure hw i would react if waterbag burst or if I 'show' or if it will be the same case as with my first boy, have to induce, but i thk it will be a good experience and worthwhile experience. Hang in there, gal. Just need to know ur not alone
