How can I get my doctor to induce me early?
I have a appointment with my ob tomorrow and I want to be induced already. I have gestational diabetes that is not controlled so I am paranoid!! I've been told about stillbirth in woman who have diabetes and that really scares me. I am 37 weeks and 3 days and just want the baby out because I am afraid. I've tried everything to control my sugars and I'm still getting a high fasting number the insulin is not working either. I've tried walking after dinner, eating a snack, not eating a snack nothing seems to be working and I am going nuts! I get to nst a week to monitor baby. I was told that I would be induced around 39 weeks due to the diabetes but I feel like anything can happen in any moment. I find myself poking at my belly very often because the baby is not moving enough for me, running for my Doppler to see if there's a heartbeat. I just can't take it anymore. If I explain this to my doc do you think they will induce me earlier?
With gestational diabetes they won't let you go past 40 weeks due to the risk of still birth
