Hi girls, Im booked in for monitoring and induction the day after tomorrow, but if all is well at monitoring and baby is happy and healthy and not in distress or running out of fluid etc, then I plan to decline induction for a few more days, to see if labour will occur naturally.
Have any of you done this, or had any experience of friends going overdue beyond induction?
My concerns are that by being induced, it may cause the baby and myself more distress than the waiting to pop. Ive heard that contractions can be super intense if induced, and worry about spiralling out of control with interventions galore. My original plan that Im still holding out some hope for is a waterbirth at home.
Any advice or soundbites at all would be greatly appreciated! Im going out of my mind sometimes! xx
