I'm glad I'm not alone.

My doctor tried to induce me night before last. My husband and I had said that we were willing to try cervidil gel but that after my internal in the morning we wanted to discuss our options rather than just go ahead and break the waters and start the syntocin, when we told the midwife this she said 'be very firm with him, he's like a bull at a gate'. I thought 'oh no!' But at the end of the 12 hours of cervidil he examined me and my cervix was still closed so even if he'd wanted to he couldn't have just broken the waters while he was in there.

I'm glad we didn't break the waters and I'm glad I haven't had any syntocin, but I am a bit bummed that my cervix is still closed.

Do you girls feel increasing pressure from your friends and family about having the baby soon? That's the part I hate the most.
