Pregnancy Info HOME

I went to my 38 week appointement and for the last month I have gained no weight at all.The doctor said the baby may have IUGR and that I should have non stress tests every 3 days to make sure the baby is ok.I will be 39 weeks tomorrow and I am very worried that the longer I am pregnant that the baby will be the one to suffer because it is not recieveing enough nutrients from me and the placenta will shut down completely.So far they said the baby is doing ok and is active but I dont understand the sense of keeping the baby in me until something serious happens.I would rather have her out if it means she will thrive better on the outside.My next app't isnt until the end of next week and I dont want to wait that long to see what happens.Im sure they will induce me by then but I dont feel good about waiting taht long to do something.Im thinking to take the castor oil bceause I am stressed out!! I feel like my body is ready because I am 2cm dilated and baby is engaged and I am having lots of pressure.
