what was your due date and deliver date...but how did you go into labor? was it induction or natural? did you have your membranes stripped to try to get things moving? did the doc break your water for you? get drugs for an induction? scheduled c-section? completely natural?

my due date was may 5th, then april 28th (and there was another change somewhere in there that i can't remember) she ended up being born april 25th. the CNM had stripped my membranes a week before but i don't think that did anything (they say if it works it works within 3 days i think it is). my water broke naturally around 10:30 pm on the 24th and she came into the world 2:14 am the 25th.

She was due Dec 9th and then December 12th but actually came on November 15th, 2009.  I believe at my last appointment, the Tuesday prior to her delivery on the Thursday, that the doctor mistakenly ruptured my water, so that it was leaking by Thursday.  My water was not fully broken, so the doctor had to rupture my bag, since it had been nearly 6 hours since I noticed the leak.

With my DD..My due date was Nov 24th, 2007. After 4 days of early labor (didn't even go to the hospital for.) I went into full labor on my due date.  The dr's only broke my water to get me going more, other than that everything was natural, no pain meds or anything.  I had her in 5 hrs and only 1/2 an hr of pushing.  She was my easy labor! =]

With my DS, my due date was Oct 10th, 2009.  After early labor/contractions from hell for 3 days, he was born on Sept 28th, 2009.  I wouldn't dilate past 5 cm so they put me on pitocin and broke my water.  He still never got past a station of 0-1.  I was given an epidural after 10 hrs of labor, the dr said I needed some relaxation or I'd never make it through a vaginal labor, and by that time I definitely agreed. lol  After the 16th hr of labor, I finally told the drs I'd try to push him down myself, since he wouldn't descend on his own.  The 17th hr he was born..after about 10 hard pushes..he moved down with mommy's help.  =]

my due date was may 12. i went to the hospital may 11 around 2:00pm and they sent me home told me to come back tomorrow. i went back that same night at 10:00pm and they gave me a room and gave me some painkillers. they said i would be induced at 7:00am. around five in the morning i asked for more medicine but i dont remember them giving me any and my husband said they didnt. the doctor broke my water and i was finally allowed to push. she was out about ten to fifteen minutes later on her due date.

i saw the other post about being induced and i just wanted to say that the doctor wanted me to be induced but i dont think there was any reason why. but that didnt happen because my daughter came all on her own. i did get pain medicine the night before and the doctor broke my water only because my daughter was already trying to come out and they also had to stick there finger in there because i would not go past 9cm. other than that it was all natural because she really wanted to come out.
