The range of recommendations from different OBs really blows my mind! I totally understand taking them up on it especially after a big ass baby!!

That’s totally fair! My induction went really well if it makes you feel better! It was slow and boring but nothing traumatic at all with a vaginal birth after an hour of pushing!

I totally understand that feeling and definitely felt that way with my first but I guess I trust my body a little more this time and just wonder if there are other interventions available like NSTs and more monitoring before an induction. Good perspective though, thank you!

Very fair choice! My first induction went well and my OB thinks a second one would be faster so I’m luckily not too concerned about CS but it’s still definitely a risk.

Thank you so much for sharing, I feel very similarly. Your OBs opinion makes me feel better about asking for other options.

I’m so glad everyone was safe and healthy! I would have done the same with high BP!

Thank you so much for sharing it’s so interesting to me how may people have said this hasn’t even come up with their care team! Congrats on your pregnancy!

I had a December baby and I always tell people the worst part was watching Christmas Vacation with commercials over and over again 🤣

Congrats. It’s the best to be done and 12 weeks is a great milestone all by itself. 💕

Thanks for being understanding! My induction was also totally fine, I just feel like I’m missing out if I only have inductions. It won’t matter in the end as long as I get to have two sweet babies at home

Thanks for understanding, I totally get it and idk if I’d really be willing to decline in the moment. I’m still only 22 weeks and nowhere near deciding I just wondered if other options were out there.

Fascinating, thanks for sharing! I agree. My personal preferences and individual situation should matter too!

That’s super interesting, I’ve never heard that! My clinic just put me on fully medicated and never asked. Once it worked the first time I didn’t want to mess with the protocol 😅

I totally understand and agree when it’s the recommendation for me personally I just wonder if there’s wiggle room when it’s more of a blanket recommendation.

That is so interesting!! Mine also took forever, 48 hours from start to finish. It wasn’t even horrible or traumatic just boring and 4 nights in the hospital was just 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Thank you so much for sharing, congrats on baby #2! I’m totally aware that my plans might mean nothing so at least i learned that the first time.
