Hi everyone,

thanks so much for your replies so far.

Falungi, don't worry, you made perfect sense . I am so happy for you that your induction went well. My cervix was unfavourable for induction and bub was not properly engaged so that's why my OB advised me to have a caesar.

Liv, my BP was also up and down a bit whilst I was on meds. I wish you all the best for this pregnancy. And try not to stress (I know it's easy to say). But I have read you are less likely to get PE again in your second pregnancy so fingers crossed for you. And please keep me posted on how the rest of the pregnancy goes.

I was beginning to think that perhaps my OB wanting bub delivered at 38 weeks was a little over zelus on her part and that my caesar was un-necessary but after reading your replies, perhaps it was for the best. And although my caesar was terrible (it was under a general cause the anaesthetist couldn't get the epidural in) I do have a perfect little 9 month old, and that is the most important thing. . .
