I've been having a lot of bother with my back, I'm barely able to walk and sleep is just not happening! I saw my consultant today (I'm 34 weeks) and he wants to see me in a couple of weeks, if I'm still in my current state I'm going to be induced at 38 weeks to have a natural birth.
I'm concerned mainly cause I've heard mixed messages about induction and also because I think my pain levels are going to be something I can't tolerate. All the midwives that I've spoken to suggested csection but my consultant seems to think the natural way will be safer.
I'm so confused, I thought I'd leave my appointment happy that id eventually have a birthing plan but I feel like I'm going to burst into tears because I am used to being sore(my back pain is a chronic issue) but I can't imagine being in even more pain and trying to push a baby out even with an epidural if needed.
Am I being silly? What does everyone think about induction?
