Hi ladies, I am also due on 29th June.... As time draws near, getting really excited.....
Btw, I hope to get some advice.... I visited my gynae yesterday and was told that though my baby is low, it is not low enough for birthing yet... Meaning not engaged..... And he is facing up instead of towards my back, which means it's not totally ideal to give birth yet....
However, I have been suffering from mild preeclampsia so my gynae is suggesting that there might be a need to induce the baby this weekend....
I been thinking and wonder if I should go for induction or just c-sect..... My gynae has been very supportive for me to try natural and even did not suggest induction until yesterday as he says the high blood pressure did not seem to improve....he has always been the one to say, let the baby come when he is ready.....
But since he suggested induction yesterday, I know he thinks it's best for us..... But I am thinking, judging from the fact that the baby is not engaged and the position is not totally ideal, will induction work? Or will it end up in emergency c-sect? Has induction worked for any of you ladies when baby is not engaged?
My own sister went for induction cos baby was too big but it was engaged and ready... However, had to go for emergency c-sect coz not dilated after a day in the hospital.....
I am thinking if I end up going for emergency c-sect , I rather not go for induction to spare myself of the time, effort and cost....
Feeling the dilemma.... Any ladies can share their experiences? Preferably similar ? Any positive induction even though baby not engaged?
