Well, I haven't visited the forum in a while, but wanted to stop by and see what births have happened and to share my own. First of all, congrats to everyone who has given birth recently. I hope all of your tummies are back to normal.
My little one wasn't due until 5/29, but after a long road of HG (mild this time, thankfully) and high blood pressure, my MD and midwife decided to induce me at 37 weeks. My baby wasn't having any of that and decided to have his water break the night before the scheduled induction! I got to the hospital around 3 cm dilated and stayed there for 10 hours. After some very intesnse contractions that seemed to be doing nothing, I got an epidural. I went from 3 cm to 10 in about an hour, pushed twice, and Grant Riley was born at 1:09 p.m. on May 10. He was 7 lb 6 oz and 21.5 inches long..pretty hefty for a 37 weeker. Once again, the HG was gone almost immediately. I'm thankful to have my family together and to feel well myself.
Good luck to everyone.
