I don't like the plan, but it's a plan. This is all assuming I don't go into labor on my own, which to me seems unlikely. I am operating under the impression that this is the way this pregnancy will end.
Monday, March 23rd: I am scheduled for an ultrasound and 20 minutes on the fetal monitor. They are going to measure WB, check my fluids, monitor the heart rate and a couple of other things. If they find no reason to induce, I go back again on Thursday the 26th.
Thursday, March 26th: Same as above.
Monday, March 30th: If I haven't gone into labor by this point, they are going to induce, since I will be 2 weeks past my due date. This is D Day.
I am not really happy about it, but what choice do I have? My doctor would prefer not to induce due to the greater possibility of a C-Section and I agree. At the same time, I really want to be done. Another 10 days of this is not something I think I can handle.
Hopefully, I'll go into labor on my own and I won't ever have to think about the plan. Somehow, I don't think that will be the case. I am fairly certain I will be induced and I would almost bet that will happen on the 30th and not before. We shall see.
Happy 6th Birthday Jovie!
