xlinzx88x asked: I’m scheduled to be induced for labor next Friday. I was reading through some of the forms and found that the doctor wants me to have an internal fetal heart monitor. I’m thinking about whether or not I want to allow this to happen as I’ve heard that the risk for infection is higher. I also don’t want the baby to get hurt. How did some of you mothers feel about this and did you actually go through it? Also, I’m having a non stress test on Tuesday, I haven’t had any contractions, so how are they going to monitor them?
I’m being induced because I’m overdue. The doctor said he doesn’t want me going past 41 1/2 weeks. I pretty much have a week to go into labor on my own, if not, I have to get induced. I’m 2cm dilated but I haven’t had any contractions as of yet. They’re going to use pitocin to induce me and the only pain medication I’ll have is nubain.
