Was supposed to get induced tonight at 39+2 days but the hospital is apparently busy with deliveries so now I’m on standby until they have room 😭😭 but they don’t know when that will be. anyone else have this happen to them?
I’m so nervous anyways about labor and this is really putting me over the edge.

That’s pretty common it took me 6 days of waiting my last pregnancy before they had a bed.

im right there with you i was supposed to go in on the 7th for my induction and its now the 12 and still havent heard anything they said I was 10th on the waiting list and they dont know how long it will be.. its driving me crazy

I was supposed to be induced the 9th I was already 40 weeks by that time and spent the whole day wondering when theyd have a room and then it was the next day and then they said the next day so at that point I had just given up on thinking I would even being induced and whats crazy is that night I actually went into labor (water broke) got in there and like more than half the rooms were open and available 👀😐 like they just didnt want to do it or something... crazy thing is I feel like if theyd have taken me like they were supposed to I wouldn't have had so many complications bc of my water breaking first they kinda give you a 24 hr period before infection is a risk and I wanted to go all natural but it ended up having to do pitocin because I wasnt progressing fast enough and then my contractions with the petocin was making babys blood pressure drop so then they said epidural was only option and then they said babys and my BP was dropping and that led to c-section 🙄

Wow! I’m shocked to hear how long so many of you had to wait! I am in the hospital now, working on my 3rd induction. This was the first time we had to wait for a bed and it was about 6 hours after the initial appointment time. I hope you have an experience more like mine. ❤️❤️❤️

Went in for an induction on the 6th at 37 weeks. Got the pill just for them to tell me 4 hours later we were doing a C-section. Baby boy was delivered on the 7th.
I just found out im pregnant. Precautions where taken but apparently failed. Im 3 months post c section. What are your experiences being pregnant so soon after a c section. Xx

Hi hope your well mamas , just wanted some advice I had a c section 3 weeks ago and today while dabbing my scar there was some fresh blood and the area seems sore and painful . What should I do I have booked a doctor app tomorrow I’m frightened that my stitch may have opened or of a possible infection. Has anyone had similar situation? Did u have to go to A and E I’m worried as I’m breast feeding too and don’t want to be there for hours x

Hey, has anyone got a home Doppler? If so did you struggle finding baby’s heart beat? All I can hear is the swooshing sound that’s it.
Also haven’t felt baby move yet.. is this normal?
