Getting Induced!!!

yasmin • Baby boy 07/30/19💙👣 Baby 2 due 04/23/22 ❤️🤰

I'm getting induced on the 30th. I'll be exactly 39 weeks. Slightly upset that I can't go through with my plan of a natural birth. But the baby is cutting off my circulation in my left leg and I can no longer walk. My body is excessively leaking water into my leg too. Causing it to swell to double its size and turn purple. Been on bed rest for the past couple of days. My entire pregnancy I haven't had any problems except for a month ago when I was in the hospital for a kidney infection. So I was really set on a natural birth. I didn't want any medical intervention unless necessary. I decided that I would get an epidural if the pain was too unbearable. But plans don't always work out as expected. And now all I'm hoping for is my baby boy to be delivered healthy. And to not have any serious complications. I would be induced even sooner just because of how seriously messed up my leg is. But he's in the 26th percentile and they wanna wait until I'm actually 39 weeks so that he may gain a little more. 5 days isn't a lot of time for him to but they r hoping that he might add a bit more. July baby instead of August. Prayers that everything goes smoothly🙏🙏🙏
