Whew I survived today!! DD1 gave me a battle at nap time but she eventually went down for an hour and a half, which is pretty good for her. I’ve had to do a lot of toileting her while nursing, and I ended up eating my dinner sitting on the toilet while N was in the tub 😂 but we all survived! MH still isn’t home. Poor guy has been gone since 6am and he has another full day tomorrow.

Work is crazy busy trying to train everyone to do my stuff while I’m out plus get my regular work done. I’m exhausted but chugging along. And my fx are crossed that DS doesn’t get the stomach bug because a little kid he was hanging out with puked everywhere at snack time.

easternshoregirl I’m sorry it didn’t work. FWIW, you still have time and planned C sections are much different than unplanned. Many people on this board choose to have a second C section because their first experience was not a bad one. If we have another one I'll probably have to have a repeat c-section (AMA and I'll probably have GD again) and it doesn't bother me at all. Both of my inductions were long and didn't go smoothly (no actual complications just weird stuff happening that made it long). For me the pain and discomfort of an induction (cervical checks, foley bulbs, pitocin, etc.) is worse than the recovery from a c-section.

I am honestly sad that I will never give birth naturally (induced with my 1st). If we decide to have another I will have to have a c/s (@37w) since my ob had to do a transverse incision to my uterus.

No baby! I had consistent contractions (avg 8 mins apart) for about 2 hours and then they stopped. Nothing much has happened since then and I literally was running around Nebraska Furniture Mart last night for a MOPS scavenger hunt lol. I see my midwife today for my 40 week appt and I think I’ll have her check my cervix this time. Hoping a hand up there will spur something on.

helloerrbody, I was so hoping this was it! Hopefully you get some good news today from your midwife. We’re only a few days apart. My appt is today, too. And so far, ZERO contractions. 👎🏻

Hopefully those contractions were productive and that you still could start up again soon!

With DS my OB checked at my 38 week appt and said I wasn’t dilated at all, then my water broke about 12 hours later. I’ve always suspected the check itself caused it, but who knows!
