beefinch if it makes you feel better when I was induced with DD they broke my water before doing pitocin. My MW let me do my own thing until contractions started 4 hours later on their own. No cord prolapse or anything and my cervix was high and closed at the time.

I'm sorry beefinch, I hope your cervix gets its shit together and cooperates soon.

0530 -
Actually managed to get some sleep, think I've had like 4 hours. But at 3am the lady opposite the young teenage waters broke and she is now being taken down to the labour ward because she's 3-4cm.
Yeah fantastic
Not pregnant? Doesn't matter, come here, you'll still have a baby BEFORE I WILL

I've gotta make fun of this and try and just chill out or I'm going to just be a crying mess. I promise I'm not that bad of a mother DD, come out and meet me, your brother loves me enough and I've kept him alive and well for 2.5 years. I just need you OUT OF ME NOW

Hang in there beefinch, we're here for you. If it's any consolation, this was basically the story of my DD birth. Sooooooo long with nothing working or happening. I remember breaking down crying because at 30 hours in i was still only like 2cm. It's tough, but I promise it'll happen and it's worth it. Big hugs, mama <3

Big hugs to you momma- I know it's so tough and frustrating especially while you're missing your DS.
Come on baby bee- there's a whole board full of ladies who want to "meet" you!!!

So at 9am, the midwife said I'm not going to check you as the labour ward wants you now.
Basically I was next on the list and a bed was free... great!
Bloody IV's sting like a bitch going in. She's tried to put a cap on DD's head but she's still to far up, and hasn't broke waters because of that.
So now I'm waiting to get an epidural, then a doc is going to do the cap, break waters, and then come back to my room to let me labour pitocin then.
But because of the risk of shoulders getting stuck (like DS birth) I'm giving myself till about 7ish, to see how many cm I am, to decide if I want a c section then. Because a clue with DS was that it took me ages to dilate because of his shoulders and him refusing to come down, so that's what I'm looking for.
Ideally I would like at least 5cm, and her head to be right down, not like she is now where they can barely reach her

PROGRESS! I mean, you know, not your cervix... but at least something different is happening!
Hope everything goes smoothly no matter what you decide. BABY!

Glad to hear you are in a room now. Praying she is nice and narrow. Either way, today is a great day to have a baby!

Emilie Mary G**** 8lb 9.5oz She refused to get her head down the birth canal, so the only option was C-section. Wasn't half as bad as I thought it would be, but the epidural has made me feel so so sick, it's horrible. Will update more soon!
