Induction questions- help!
After my Dr's appointment today I was admitted to OB- my blood pressure was high, and I learned I gained 5lbs in 6 days. After lots of tests I was sent home with a bucket in which I am to collect my urine for the next 24 hours (so, that's fun). I have to take it back tomorrow, and if my BP is high or I have protein in my urine I have to be induced. If we can wait a few days she said she will, but will definitely be induced by Monday.
I'm 38 weeks tomorrow and ok with delivering now, but I'm very anxious about the induction process. We plan on a natural labor and I don't know if I can handle induction contractions! She said she will start with cervidil (I'm 1.5 cm 50% effaced now) I'm on bed rest now so I can't go for walks or try to get labor going myself. I've been using EPO and clary sage oil. How was the induction process for everyone else?
