I'm headed to the hospital tomorrow at 6am to have my water broken to hopefully start labor. I feel like we should be doing something special tonight, but really I just want to relax at home. If you had a scheduled induction, what did you do the night before?
-
Tried to relax! I was very nervous and excited. So, I had my last "because I'm pregnant" dinner and tried to relax. I was induced five years ago yesterday, my daughter was born the day after I was induced and she turned five today! It goes fast
Ps good luck tomorrow
-
Did a little bit of laundry, picked up the house, dropped off the dog, and ate a big meal!! I knew they wouldn't let me eat the next day so I hoarded up! Then relaxed and tried to sleep.
-
Ate a really good dinner at home since I couldn't eat after midnight. I had to Che k in at the hospital at 9:00 pm because my inducton was starting with Cervadil.
-
I didn't know I was being induced until the morning of. I wish I had:
Ate a huge dinner
Showered
Shaved
Double checked the bag -
I'm in the hospital so DH is bringing my bag and spending the night. Dogs are dropped off at the kennel. I wish I had the chance to see them in person but DH is busy getting things done. I did ask him to send me a video of them and I got two videos.
He is bringing my last dinner.
I'm going to shower tonight.
Watch one of the movies I've been wanting to see.
Eat or snack on my favorite foods. -
We went out to dinner for the last time as a family of 2 and then went home, had some fun in hopes of maybe one last attempt to get things going on their own (so romantic) and then went to bed.
-
I went in to labor. Ha!
-
Can I still play even though my induction was not scheduled? lol I hung out at home, went for a walk, ate normal food, painted my nails, and BARELY slept all night because there were bad thunderstorms and the dog was up all night whining and then sleeping in our bed (/on our heads). I had an u/s and NST booked for 8am the next morning and we kept joking about how we couldn't possibly get anything but good news because it would be too cruel to force me into an induction on 0 sleep. The next morning I ate nothing (bc I planned to eat between appointments) and went to my u/s where I got kicked over to L&D for induction! Not cool universe lol
-
I had a sudden, unplanned induction (went in to my 37 week appointment and was sent to L&D with severe pre-e) so I couldn't plan a final meal, date night, etc.
The day before, we went to our tennis club's Memorial Day pool party and I was rocking some pool volleyball for a large chunk of the afternoon!
-
We went to a nice dinner.
-
We went to a dinner of my choice, then dropped our dog off, then had ice cream, loaded the car up and then went to bed.
I was planning to get up and shower/do my hair in the morning. Of course DD decided to come 5 hours before I was scheduled to be induced...
-
I checked in at night, so I was off work, got my nails done, packed, cleaned, and had a nice last dinner! So needed since I wouldn't be able to eat for the next 24 hrs!
-
Eat all the foods! My induction was unplanned - blood pressure was super high at my 40 week appointment, so I got told I was getting induced asap, but my OB was kind enough to let me go home to get my things... She also told me to eat all the food in my house before heading to the hospital. Love her for that.
-
Honestly I am thinking hard, but I can't remember!!!! We went to lunch and a movie the day of though (it was at 5pm)
-
We bought a car! We planned to do it after baby, but he was late & when the induction was scheduled, we decided that was as good a time as any. My husband said we got a good deal because I was sooo huge and they felt sorry for us.
-
We went to the movies and then I went into labor around midnight
