38 weeks pregnant- induction?!

I am 38 weeks and 5 days pregnant (well now 6 days since im uploading it late haha) Talking about my week, doctors appt, and showing my big belly :)

Sorry the induction explanation was so confusing!
Its just a really long story I could not sum up on the spot in a short video :/ but I do not need an induction at this point, and hope to not need one at all! I am going to try and avoid the use of pitocin (i know the horror stories)!

My doctor will determine if my body is "ready" for an induction on Tuesday, if its not, i will not go through with it because the induction may not take and the results could easily be a c section!

the best thing to go into labor and sorry if people take it the wrong way or ofensive..but having sex helps alot because the sperm has something that patocin has...thats what the nurse told me at the hospital with my first son when i going into early labor at 51/2 months...but yea its gatta be that frisky kinda hard sex...better than induction...LOL...and it workt for me with bouth my kids..LOL..hope it works for this one too>.....LOL....

I had my son at 38 weeks 1 day by doing the following a 3 days before going into labor. My labor was super quick too, just under 5 hrs! I hope this helps. ;-)

Drink 2-3 cups of red raspberry tea leaf tea. (everyday)

Eat LOTS of marinara sauce!!!

Put on some comfy shoes & walk for 2 hrs. (everyday)

Get a 1/2 hr long foot massage.

Spicy HOT chinese food.

Sex.

This camera looks much better than the other one. And good luck with Tuesday, hopefully you will be able to go into labour naturally.

I didnt dialate with either of my two girls before I went into labour but I had pretty quick labours both times. 8 hours with the first and 3 1/2 with the second :)
