Hi there,
I was in hospital last week and they have told me they will be inducing me at 38 weeks. I have a meeting with consultant on Thursday.
Is it too late to ask for an elective? Can they confirm in the appointment?
Reason being is my heart rate has been a nightmare for the past month and now baby’s heart rate is high when mine goes high. They have said I have postural tachycardia.
If I had an induction these are the things I am worried about:
- both our heart rates
- baby going into distress with an already high heart rate
- 40% chance of having c section anyway
- my heart rate if something went wrong
- I can’t stand for longer than around 1 minute or walk further than the kitchen without my heart racing to around 30-40 bpm higher.
Thanks so much! :)
