I know all of you are probably sick and tired of me posting asking questions about whether I'm in early labor or not, but I'm just so tired of this!! My doctor is inducing me this saturday for high blood pressure reasons at 38 weeks and she said because my cervix is only 1 cm dialated and making no progress, or so it seems, that I'll most likely end up having a cesarean. AHH and this is what gets me. I really, really, really cannot express how badly i do NOT want one! I've tried everything to put myself into labor and nothing seems to work. I wake up every night or so with some really strong contractions where I can't even sit up thinking that the time has finally come and then they stop and then it's nothing. (I'm hoping this is dialating my cervix!) I'm so tired of sitting around waiting because i know it could be any minute! I've gone through all of the impending labor things; flu like syptoms, nesting, mucous plug passing, back labor, emotional wreck, extra discharge, ALL of it. I'm getting sick of this and I just want to meet my baby boy and hold him and introduce him to this world! Is there anyone out there going through this as well?? What can I do to keep my mind off it? ARG and what happens if I do end up getting a cesarean? Ah pray for me girls, this is getting so overwhelming!

when you wake up in the middle of the night with contractions get up and start walking don't let them stop just keep walking until they are regular and five minutes apart and go to the hospital..... It worked for me... Good luck I'm only 36 weeks and I want this baby out but I have to wait till march 20 so I can win a bet ...... LOL its up to 350$

expecting - have a serious talk with your doctor - I was induced with my first son because of high blood pressure - he never once mentioned a c-section to me - I was also 1 cm - I got pitocin and progressed right along and delivered naturally - I hate when doctors a__sume you will need a c-section and you might but he can't possibly know that right now - you could get pitocin and contract beautifully and deliver without complications. If you end up with a c-section you will just need some extra help is all so you can heal I haven't had a c-section so I can't really help there but I am not afraid of it this time (my 3rd) and if it happens it happens - so long as me and my dd are healthy and happy after!
