Possible induction

Went back to triage today due to the Dr not updating my midwife his report after been sent there on 22nd due to baby girl been under the 10th centile he told me today I could be getting induced at either 38 or 39 weeks if baby hasn't shown a change at my next appointment which is this Saturday so going to ask them what's going to happen on Saturday as the not knowing is giving me anxiety really bad

We’re in for the prospect of another induction for being under the 5th percentile. No other medical reasons she’s just genetically small, we’re still debating declining it

@Sadie I have had 2 other babies who where on the smaller side but never got induced with them this will be my first I'm just anxious not know what's going to happen I hate not knowing if they are wanting to induce me then I'm going to go ahead with it if it's obviously going to be in babies best interests just ready for her to be here the last few weeks are horrible

@Becky I do understand the conflicting feelings and confusion. I think it’s NHS guidelines to offer induction for all babies under 10th percentile. I was induced with my first and it’s all the experience I have to go off. If it wasn’t for the hormone drip I would do it again, but I had a terrible time with the drip, wait to see what they say and you have every right to not agree to an induction, it’s still completely up to you xx

I'm in the exact same boat, iv to go back on Monday for another scan and to be told what's happening or if they are going to induce me. Baby girl is hugging that 10th centile line so hoping she's put on some beef. Though iv got myself mentally ready for induction now so scared ill be told I'm not getting one. I can't bear the wait and the uncertainty 😌
