<t>I was on the normal schedule at first, then around 28 weeks went to every other week - then around 33 weeks went to every week.<br/> <br/> I have really not been treated as high risk other than monitoring my BP at home (it's fine), and getting protein checks at every appt. (I guess some women don...

<t>My town does not have any peris/MFMs except for one that visits at one hospital 1 day/month. The closest is an hour and a half away. I met with the MFM that visits our area for a pre conception consult, and he said that he gets called in sometimes by the local docs if things go downhill and they ...

<t>Hey guys,<br/> <br/> I got my induction date scheduled - they want me to go in on the evening of 12/7 (10 days early), to start the cytotec - and then I guess will do pitocin if necessary starting in the morning.<br/> <br/> Anyone have experience with cytotec? Let me know your experiences!<br/> <...

<t>Well, my doc said there is no reason to stop LDA - that it won't pose a problem in delivery. I will ask again when I go back next week to find out how long post partum I should take it. <br/> <br/> I think it's kind of strange that everyone here was taken off of it at some point though - I wonder...

<t>I am such a planner that I can't stand the not knowing when she'll be here! And yes, I've made my lists!

Congrats on a great appointment! You are really getting to the homestretch!

<t>Feeling good for probably the last 2-3 weeks. It's been nice! I went through a period of extreme anxiety that was really awful and almost debilitating, so it's nice to feel normal! <br/> <br/> My home BP was just 108/68 this morning, so that is looking good too. I have an appt today with the Dr.,...

<t>I know this has been asked before, but if I do a search on LDA, there are so many posts to go through~ I figured I'd just ask again.<br/> <br/> I have an appt today, and will ask my Dr. too - but I wanted to know other's experience with this before I go in.<br/> <br/> If you took LDA during your ...
