Answer 1

I was anemic, iron defecient (before and during preg.) I had toximia @34wks and I had preclampsia. I went into labor when I was admitted 4 toximia and they stopped it. It took 2 days but it was stopped. Than @ 36wks, 2dys I went into labor again & my doctor asked me if I wanted him to stop it go go ahead w/the labor and I desided to have the baby. I was in labor for 3dys and I had a 5lb 14oz little girl that was perfectly healthy. Shes 15mos now and shes advanced in alot of things she does.

Answer 2

I was induced twice once because my Dr talked me into it because i was due on Easter weekend and Dr was leaving town,so I agreed, that was 20 years ago. I said i would never be induced again for a stupid reason. But when I had another baby 16 years later, i was a week over due and Dr. kept telling new hubby (1st time daddy) that because it was my third baby and I was already dilated, he hoped we made it to the hospital. Then he had my babies heart monitored and said that baby' heart rate was low. So of course I did it then but i felt bullied into it. Babies weighted 8lbs 2oz and 7lbs 8oz. The only baby that was a tolerable experience was 1st with a natural progressing labor. Not worth it for convenience sake at all. I would carry them 2 more months to avoid inducing.

Answer 3

I had been in slow labor and dialated to 3 for over a week. I finally started having stonger contractions. I went into the hospital and they decided to keep me there. They induced my labor, broke my water and 12 hours later Colton Daniel was born. He was 6 lbs 1 oz. I was 36 weks pregnant.
Colton is now 14 months old. He is extremely advanced for his age, running talking. The works!!

Answer 4

I was induced the day before by baby was due, which really didnt make since to me, but everytime I would have an appointment he would be shocked that I hadnt had her yet, so he induced me and i ended up having to have a c-section, b/c my bones were to small for her to fit through, and she ended up having a cone head, where she tried so hard, it was kinda cute, but kinda sad too.

I had to have a scheduled c-section early. I was 38 weeks and my baby was 7lbs even. I had gestational diabetes and was on medication to regulate it so they wanted the baby out as soon as it was safe to prevent her from prolonged exposure to the medication.
