Today is BB Eden's EDD already. Now has past 12 am. Ytd just visited the Dr and decided to induce on the date of 5/1/2011. A day after my EDD. BB Eden should be able to arrive and see this world for the first time on 6/1/2011, Thursday. I know many are wondering why not induce earlier, why wait til now. Because Bb Eden's head have not been engage in earlier stage and my cervix has not open yet. Dr was afraid if I choose to induce earlier, I may need a ceasrean if BB Eden still isn't ready to come out and might causes his heartbeat to be weak for staying inside too long.
Actually I would want a early labor due to many reasons.
- I don't wanna clash the baby shower into CNY period after my confinement.
- School intake, Eden can choose to join the 2010 intake instead of 2011 cause the 2010 intake ends at the first few days/1 week Jan.
- If baby shower to be clash with CNY, how am I going to cope for the things to prepare for CNY and baby shower stuffs together? And of cause the cost of the buffet for baby shower will certainly goes up higher during CNY.
There's many that I'm worried for however BB Eden wishes to choose his own date and Dr refused to allow me induce any days before my EDD so I guess I can only take one step at a time slowly organise everything. Hope when time to come, it won't be in a chaos.
Conclusion:
05/1/2011-6.30pm :Wed night visit Dr to insert the pills for induction.
06/1/2011-12am :Check in to hospital for labor waiting.
Wish me luck people! Hope I can withstand the power of using Epidural!
