Advice... being induced because of HELLP

Heather

I am looking for any advice. I will be induced at 37 weeks because they are very concerned I have HELLP Syndrome. Baby is doing completely fine they have been monitoring twice a week, blood pressure had been inconsistent and gradually raising to become high. I had planned on a natural birth but understand to take things as they come. My doctors explained that with my cervix being “unfavorable” and being a first time mom I will likely receive a lot of pitocin which I wanted to avoid and that I would be in labor for 30-72 hours. Advice on how to handle things would be greatly appreciated! And any helps for what to keep occupied for long labor. Thanks!
