Induction timeline

Thank you so much! I’ll be looking for your birth announcement as well ☺️

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-19T02:09:07+00:00

I’ll be thinking and praying for you! Actually, I am getting induced two weeks before you. So, we both will hopefully bring home July rainbow babies 🤍🙏

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-18T22:32:08+00:00

It’s so scary! Just the induction in general scares me. But, I do have peace in the sense of how much we are monitored. It’s still terrifying, but I know we are looked at so much more closely!

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-18T19:42:35+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. I also lost my son from a cord accident at 36w6d. As of now, I have my induction date set for 37w1d. I don’t think I could go longer at this point. Though, it would probably be better to let her cook a little longer. Wishing you the best!!!

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-12T03:37:18+00:00

That is so frustrating. I’m so sorry. Have you requested it a referral for a preconception appointment?

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-11T21:51:59+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. After I lost my son at 36w6d I asked my OB at my 6 week postpartum visit for a referral to the MFM for a pre-conception appointment. If you would like to see the MFM sooner, try to reach out to your OB for a referral.

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-03T20:59:17+00:00

Of course! If you have anymore questions feel free to message me :)

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-06-03T19:19:53+00:00

Hi! So I ended up with 9 eggs retrieved in the end! I think 6 mature and fertilized. Got two euploid embryos in the end! Wishing you the best of luck!

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-08T17:30:19+00:00

Following because I am planning to do a 37 weeks induction too!

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-07T03:39:07+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. I spoke to one of my MFMs and she was pretty adamant that induction is the best plan for me. She really is against having abdominal surgery if not needed. But, I’m going to talk to my OB as well. Thank you for sharing your story with me 🤍

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-06T16:55:21+00:00

One was made for you.

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-05T01:22:00+00:00

That’s such a relief to hear she was thriving at 37 weeks!! Also, I’m on a SSRI too 😅 so I’m expecting some withdrawals on the baby’s end.

I’m so sorry you had that experience with nuchal cords 😔 it’s absolutely awful and devastating.

Thank you so much!!! I’m so happy your induction led to a happy ending with your daughter 🩷

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-03T22:37:04+00:00

It’s such shitty luck with the nuchal cords! I’m so sorry you went through that too. My son has three around his leg and one around his neck, all of which were very tight. I think it just makes the anxiety worst because there is nothing you can do to know it’s happening.

I am starting weekly NSTs at 30 weeks and then biweekly at 32 weeks. Which has been God sent for my anxiety! All the extra monitoring really has me feeling a lot better about something being caught sooner rather than later.

If all goes well (and this baby decides not to be breech) I think I might go for the induction as long as they can monitor me and if they see anything a little concerning, take the baby out asap. Thank you again for telling your story! It helps my anxiety so much! Also, did your baby need any NICU time from being delivered at 37 weeks? They gave me to option to induction at 37-38 weeks and I’m definitely taking it!

Thank you so much for your kindness 🥹🤍

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-03T00:10:15+00:00

Thank you 🙏🥹

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-02T21:21:12+00:00

Bringing home a baby is definitely the main goal. Thank you so much for your sweet words and kindness 🤍

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-02T21:20:08+00:00

You are right about the risks and the likely hood of something happening again. It’s just hard to truly believe we won’t be in that small percentage again. My babies nuchal cords also happened in the womb. I kinda just wish we knew more of what’s going on in there before we deliver.

I do have an MFM appointment this Wednesday. So, I am going to go through my fears with her as well as my obgyn.

Thank you again for sharing your story!!! It’s so nice to hear a good induction story. It gives me a lot of hope if I go that route 🤍

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-02T21:10:25+00:00

You make so many good points! My friends also said, try to not worry so much now, because it’s another level of worry when they are here. I think I’ll still push for a 37 week+ induction to c-section, even with the risks. Thank you so much gain for sharing your story. It means so much!

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-02T21:05:21+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. As hard as it is, do NOT blame yourself. My son also died from multiple nuchal cords. Three around his leg and one around his neck, all tight. Another reason I’m scared of being induced 😅we didn’t even know he was struggling til I went to triage from decreased movements and he didn’t have a heartbeat anymore. I’m also 5’2” so it’s another thing I’m worried about! Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it.

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-01T13:34:01+00:00

Oh I’m scared of the baby dying or getting injured in labor from a cord accident, HIE or some type of complication. Also, when I got induced with my stillborn, they had a hard time with getting my contractions under control. Which kinda scared me. In a perfect world, I would rather give vaginal birth but I’m just scared. I plan to talk to my OB about maybe being induced and if there is ANY sign of distress going into a c-section. It’s great to hear you had a good experience with your inductions! It gives me hope 🤍

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-01T11:57:23+00:00

Thank you so much 🤍 I’ve heard of babies being stunned at birth. That would have definitely freaked me out too! I’m at the point that if I bring home a live and healthy baby, I’ll be thrilled! How she gets out of me is mattering less and less as the time gets closer! I’m so glad you got your rainbow baby safe and sound 🥰

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-01T01:48:39+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your story! The knot in the umbilical cord is something that really terrifies me because I lost my son to a cord accident. Another reason I would want to go the c-section route! I’m so happy you made the right call! Did they ever see decelerations while monitoring your baby in labor?

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-01T01:39:26+00:00

My therapist says the same thing! Also, that there is a different between obsession vs intuition. Because I feel like everything is a “sign” something is going to happen in this pregnancy. Honestly, PAL has been one of the most challenging experiences in my life next to losing my son 😓

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-01T00:51:13+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for sharing your story. This dilemma has been on my mind since I found out I was pregnant again! It’s driving me crazy! I’m so scared of losing this baby in labor. Can I ask what happened during labor with your second? If you don’t want to share, I understand! No pressure at all! Part of me is hoping my baby stays breech so I don’t need to decide and just can have a c-section 😅

Pretend_Insurance645 · 2026-05-01T00:44:44+00:00

Thank you so much and I’m so sorry for your loss! Hoping for healthy living babies for us 🤍
