So I've lost my waters at 37+4 weeks at 8am yesterday, I was examined at 6pm after not going into labour and told I had a bishops score of 8. They did a stretch and sweep and said it was very successful, and my cervix had been walked forward?!
I'd had contractions yesterday morning in the early hours so the advice was to go home and sleep and they thought it would all come on naturally again.
Well it hasn't.
I'm rested, I've bounced on a ball, I've had a shower and I've not had a whiff of a contraction since the one just after the sweep.
They want to induce me next apparently... but I've already been told that labour ward is very busy with 8 inductions this morning so
I feel they are going to say I have to wait which scares me because of the infection risk to baby that waiting has.
Anyone have any other ideas to get DS to even think about coming out and stopping his shenanigans? They would be much appreciated!
