    I’ll be 42 weeks tomorrow. I refuse an induction until 43 weeks which I likely won’t need. I have been researching like a crazy woman since 39 weeks and there is so much good information available to those who can move past all of the fear. Unless something is seriously wrong then it is always best to wait. Birth happens!

    I have 8 kids, all were "overdue" .
    The doctors put pressure on me to induce the babies, but I declined.
    I had 8 natural births, no medication, no other intervention.
    Every time my placenta looked healthy and my babies were not overdue according to the nurses.
    With my last one I decided to give birth at home without a nurse or midwife ( couldn't get a midwife).
    Delivered overdue 13 days + a healthy 5kg boy, without tearing. Went to my doctor , he was shocked. How comes all my baby's are overdue, according to the doctors? They won't accept it.
    All kids were over 4kg. My body knows how und when to deliver.
    I'm blessed with my 9th pregnancy and look forward for a natural hombirth with a midwife .

      You have to keep yourself busy and don't put too much pressure on due dates.
      Slow down if your body tells you so and keep going if you feel like it.
      This pregnancy is much harder on me, and I'm again overdue. My husband and my midwife are giving me the best support. Don't listen to people with negative comments.

      We totally understand that you are panicking! 😊 Most women do when they are 40+ pregnant and are waiting for labor to start.
      However, we can assure you that we know LOTS of women who went past their due date and eventually went into labor spontaneously! Some earlier, some later!
      The best advice right now is to try to stay relaxed! Keep in mind that your body is made for this. So your body knows exactly what it is doing!
      The other thing is: please don't forget that BILLIONS of women have done this before you. If so many other women could do it, you can do it too!!
      We are sure, everything will be fine and you will soon hold your sweet little baby in your arms!! 🥰🥰

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hi there 😊,
      we totally understand your situation! 😊
      In general, the process of a spontaneous start of labor depends on two major factors: your cervix and baby's position. Therefore, we show you lots of things that COULD help bring baby into a better position for labor (to put more pressure on the cervix) and to help your body prepare your cervix for labor.
      In this video (th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html) we explain several tools to induce labor.
      Moreover, birth ball exercises could help (th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html)
      On top of that, the right sitting position can also support the whole process (th-cam.com/video/K5uxfr0YJ_E/w-d-xo.html)
      We really hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

    This video was such a relief to me. I'm currently 38 weeks and 1 day into pregnancy, but I've been having daily Braxton Hicks contractions every 2-6 hours along with pelvic pressure since 36 weeks and have had a lot of mucus discharge but no blood. When my OB checked me at 36.5 weeks, I was 1cm dilated and baby's head was already very low in my pelvis. At 37.5 weeks, I was 2cm dilated.
    Since that 36th week though, I've been feeling like I'm going to go into labor early at any minute, and it just left me with the increasing pressure that there is something wrong with my body. It's so reassuring to remember that I'm really only entering the period when labor is statistically likely NOW. Also looking back at my 11 week ultrasound, it looks like September 14th is a more realistic due date than the 17th. My baby will come when she is ready. 🙏
    I'm also wondering though, which medications could potentially slow labor? Besides my prenatal vitamin, I'm also taking omeprazole daily for heartburn, extra magnesium oxide and calcium for leg cramps, and extra vitamin D3 because I have multiple sclerosis.

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Hi there Katie 😊,
      it's great to hear that our video was a relief to you! 😊
      Please be assured that we know many cases like yours: women who observe all those early signs of labor. Everything in their body tells them that they should go into labor any minute now - but it's not happening.
      By the way, here is one thing that we observe at the clinic: in many many such cases, the trigger that finally helps those women go into labor is a treatment that focuses on relaxation and stress relief. We do this with the help of acupuncture/reflexology. But we are sure that other things could help as well, if they help you relax.
      That said, if you are only week 38 and are already 2cm dilated, we would not worry at all. From our experience we can tell you that the probability for you to go into labor spontaneously is VERY high (assuming that baby is in a good position for labor). But as you said: your daughter will come when she is ready.
      By the way: the medications and vitamins that you mentioned should not affect your labor in any way. So, we would not worry about it...
      We hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

    With my first one I was told we will do anything to get you at least to 36 weeks because everything seemed like I will give birth earlier… well I ended up induced in 42weeks. With my second I gave birth at home and with the previous experience I was more patient and let the nature do it’s thing and also gave birth at 42weeks. This time I am 40 weeks and although I sometimes really wish for it to just come I know I still have at least two weeks and I am taking everything easily. It is what it is. I guess I will never experience what it is to give birth at 37weeks to a small precious baby. I birth giant babies, strong and healthy and that’s okay too.

      Hi there 😊,
      thanks so much for sharing this with us!! 😊👍
      We know that many women panic when they reach their due date but nothing is happening. But the reality is that, on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Plus, it is also important to note that the EDD is only an estimate. No one can tell you for sure, when you actually conceived...
      Therefore, some babies will come earlier, others will come later, as your case shows us. And under normal circumstances, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that... The most important thing is that both, baby and mother are doing well after birth...
      So, it's great that you have the attitude that you have! 😊👍

    This video was very informative and reassuring! My second baby was due 5 days ago and I caught a flu day after due date which is very chesty now so I'm on antibiotics. Its winter where I live, flu and colds going around. Having a scan day after tomorrow to check on his health. I actually did have an early dating scan, but your video gives a lot of food for thought, i might have a scar on my cervix because with my first baby she was induced after two days of non progressing contractions where I stayed at 1cm, wasnt sleeping and back was in severe pain too and after the induction she went into a fetal heart distress and I haemorraged but they got her out quickly and she was ok, and then they found my big bleed to be coming from a cervical tear. The upcoming scan will give more peace of mind and in a way i am glad for the delay because I wouldnt have wanted to be in labour on the initial time i got sick and had fever nor risk him catching it.

      Hi there 😊,
      please note that in most pregnancies, week 37 is still too early to "make some serious progress". Most women we have met go through the most important chances in preparation for labor (such as cervical changes) only later, particularly week 39....

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Everything within that range is considered "normal". So maybe, it's just too early for your body at this point...
      Moreover, there are many factors which play a role here, such as the position of your baby and the state of your cervix!
      That said, in general, several things could help induce labor:
      In this video (th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html) we explain several tools to prepare the cervix for labor and to induce labor.
      Moreover, birth ball exercises could help (th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html)
      On top of that, the right sitting position can also support the whole process (th-cam.com/video/K5uxfr0YJ_E/w-d-xo.html)
      We really hope this helps! 😊

    I am 38 weeks and 1 day with my first child. I have had baby in a head down position, with its face towards my back since week 35. I believe it has been in an optimal position for a while! So since week 35 I have also had ongoing period cramps, pelvic pain (lightening pain and pressure), and last night I finally felt baby descend as the kicks are lower and my rib area feels softer (the uterus is now sitting more above my belly button then under my ribs) and the pelvic pain is more intense. I have not been examined for my cervix so I have no idea if I am at all dilated. No mucus plug as of yet and only Braxton hicks' contractions on and off (not really overly painful - just feel like period cramps). I am exercising every day by walking (curb walking, beach walking, stair walking gardening/bending) , doing breathing exercises, eating medjool dates to ripen the cervix, relaxing and resting and pressing on acupressure points. I am literally in a waiting game now! Waiting for the contractions and mucus plug and waters to break. I feel I am so close! Does it sound like it may be soon?

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi there 😊,
      we totally understand your situation! We have seen cases like yours many times: women who seem more than ready to go into labor - yet nothing is happening (at least not in terms of labor).
      We would love to tell you WHY that's the case. However, the reality is that different women take different paths eventually. For example, in many of those cases, women go into labor in a matter of days (sometimes hours). In other cases, it takes another 1, 2 sometimes 3 weeks.
      Unfortunately, at this stage, scientists still don't know what actually triggers labor eventually. It is currently assumed that it is a hormone that the baby releases as soon as baby's lungs are ready. However, this does not help you, right? 😊
      The only thing that DID work in our case for several women is this: an acupuncture treatment that focuses on relaxation.
      Normally, acupuncture cannot induce labor. However, in cases of women who seem more than ready to go into labor, but it's just not happening, we often observe that relaxation is the key to "let go".
      Unfortunately, we cannot tell you if this also applies to you too! We can only tell you the only thing that worked for SOME women in such cases.
      Whatever happens though: please keep this in mind: it's always better to experience everything you experience right now, instead of not observing/feeling anything for the longest time (not even that baby engages). Eventually, you will hold your baby in your arms! And that's all that matters!

      do you know if your baby is facing your front at this point?
      We are asking because severe back pain at this stage of your pregnancy CAN be a sign that your baby is facing your front and not your back. And when that's the case, we often observe a prolonged pre-labor phase in which the baby basically tries to find a better position...
      This does not necessarily have to apply to you though! It's just something we have observed often....

      So, don't be too sad about it! You did not do anything wrong! It's just that in those cases when the cervix does not dilate, there is really no other way than a C-section....

      Statistically, many women go into labor AFTER their expected due date (and yes, there is some evidence that genetics can play a role here too). However, right now, you still have one more week to go. So no need to worry right there!
      Also, please note that we have seen LOTS of women go into labor although their cervix has not made any progress at all during the days/weeks leading up to their labor. That's okay! Your contractions will take care of your cervix once they start...

      However, please keep in mind that sometimes, when it's an up and down in terms of contractions, there can be good reasons for this. For example: it could be that your baby is trying to find a better position for labor.
      Here is another video that might help: s://th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html

      @CareAboutLittleOnes  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi there 😘,
      honestly, we would tell your sister to see a different a doctor!
      First of all, a baby often engages AFTER labor has started.
      And only if baby does NOT engage AFTER labor has started, we can talk about a C-section (but only after having tried exercises and positions to help baby engage).
      Second, whether or not a baby fits through the pelvis has NOTHING to do with the age. The pelvis is ALWAYS open. It does not close in the first place...
      The only reason for a C-section are medical reasons that require one.
      So, again, we would tell her to see a different doctor!
      Thank you! 😘
      We wish her ALL THE BEST for her and the baby!! ❤️

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, thanks SO MUCH for your lovely feedback - we are very happy to hear that you like our videos! 😊
      Regarding your question:
      Under normal circumstances, you can certainly have a normal delivery.
      That said, it is very important that you are being monitored regularly. That's because ICP can have "unwanted" effects on the baby. So, please make sure you don't miss any appointments with your doctor! Every check makes sure that your baby is doing well in there!
      If you do that, nothing should stand between you and a normal delivery...
      We hope this helps! 😊

    What about being advanced maternal age? What is the evidence of having to deliver before 40 weeks? Is it safe to wait beyond 40 weeks at 41 years old if no signs of labor?

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi there 😊,
      it's a good question that you are asking! So basically, science-wise, there is SOME evidence that the risk for the baby increases when you have a more advanced age and wait beyond 40 weeks.
      However, most likely, it is not that age DIRECTLY affects the risk for the baby. It is rather so that at a more advanced age, you are more likely to suffer from X and Y during your pregnancy. And it's THOSE things that could affect the baby.
      So, a good doctor will not just tell you: you are 41 years old. We HAVE to induce because of your age. A good doctor will tell you: Look, because of your "advanced" age, the baby is now exposed to the following risk because you have, I don't know, pre-eclampsia, diabetes etc. In other words, it really depends on your pregnancy case and if there are medical reasons if you need an induction or not. So, we would definitely talk with your doctor about this...
      We hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

      Hi there 😊,
      as mentioned in this video, it depends a bit on the exact reason why your labor is not starting in the first place. So, we hope that this video helped you get at least some ideas. And of course, the videos that we mention in the description of this video are supposed to help you!
      That said, there are several things which have helped other women in similar situations to get contractions started.
      1. Nipple stimulation (just keep in mind that it may not be done with a few minutes per day)
      2. Reflexology (same as nipple stimulation: it may not be done with a few minutes per day only)
      3. Acupuncture (acupuncture itself cannot induce labor; however, it can help in cases when a woman cannot go into labor because of high stress levels. So if you are really stressed, acupuncture could help)
      4. Exercises on a birthing ball
      Of course, there is also Castor oil. However, personally, we always treat Castor oil as last resort simply because of the side effects. Also, you can never be sure if it is going to work... Still, it CAN be super effective for labor induction. Just discuss with your doctor first, if Castor oil is the right tool in your particular case...
      We talk more about these tools and also how to apply them in these 2 videos: th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html (reflexology, nipple stimulation, Castor oil)
      th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html (birth ball exercises)
      And then of course, there is also relaxation: sometimes, the start of labor takes longer because stress hormones interfere with labor hormones. This can be a particular problem if fear is a topic (f.e. when a woman is afraid of labor). Anger could also be a reason. In that case, it can help to work on those stress levels, f.e. with the help of a massage treatment, mediation, yoga, whatever relaxes you. OR if it is indeed anger or fear, a therapist might help (or just talking with a friend).
      We hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Everything within that range is considered "normal". So maybe, it's just too early for your body at this point...
      Moreover, there are many factors which play a role here, such as the position of your baby and the state of your cervix!
      That said, in general, several things could help induce labor:
      In this video (th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html) we explain several tools to prepare the cervix for labor and to induce labor.
      Moreover, birth ball exercises could help (th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html)
      On top of that, the right sitting position can also support the whole process (th-cam.com/video/K5uxfr0YJ_E/w-d-xo.html)
      We really hope this helps! 😊

    I've been having Contractions now for almost 3 weeks. Mostly without pain, but last 5 days with pain. Every day got more intense. Most days was only at night at petty regular (every 10 to 30min). Then yesterday it was the most painful and all day long, mostly in intervals from 2 to 15 min. Over night they go away fully. I'm now awake again and no contractions yet. I read it is prodromal labor and prepares the body for the real labor. I just wonder when it's going to start because I've had painful contractions now for 5 days and yesterday's were already so strong I had to stop and breathe through a lot of them 😂 😅

      Yes, there is something which is called "prodromal labor" (we posted a video on this on our channel) and it is a very mean thing! Because it is basically contractions which lead to nothing.
      Do you know anything about baby's position? Is baby in a good position?

      Hi there 😊,
      we are very sorry to hear that! We know how much discomfort those last few weeks can cause a pregnancy for some women...
      So, first of all: it is vey difficult to say WHY you experience this pain because there can be so many reasons: Your baby's position, the shape of your pelvis, the size of your baby or a combination of those.
      Based on the symptoms that you describe, it could also be a symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD). So, it's always a good idea to have a chat with your provider too so that they can make a proper diagnosis.
      But here is the good news: you CAN lie (and sleep) on your back too, as long as you make sure that your back is reclined (ideally 45 degrees, but even 35 degrees is possible). Because when you are in a reclined position, gravity is pulling your baby downwards as well. In other words: your baby's weight does not entirely rest on your vena cava...
      And then, if your doctor tells you that it is in fact pelvic pain, then there are also some exercises that could help. We explain them in this video: th-cam.com/video/SqInGwou5v0/w-d-xo.html
      We really hope this helps! 😊

      Hi there 😘,
      please understand that - as much as we would love to - but it is impossible for us to tell you what you should do in your situation.
      Not only are we legally not allowed to do that. Also, we don't know anything about your case.
      We can only tell you this:
      Normally, inductions are being done when there are medical reasons, for example, when the placenta can no longer sufficiently provide for the baby.
      A grade 3 placenta, for example, is not necessarily a problem for the baby because placentas do age over time. The only question is: does it have an effect on the baby, which is something they have to find out via tests, such as ultrasound exams.
      Therefore, we recommend that you first, talk with your doctor so that they can tell you in detail based on which arguments they propose an induction.
      And second, if you don't want an induction, we encourage you to get a second opinion by another doctor! It's always good to have a second opinion to see if they too would recommend an induction and if so, based on which reasons.
      Again, we are sorry that we cannot be a better help here. But this is what we would do....
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

    Thank you for all you informative videos!

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, thanks SO MUCH for your lovely feedback! 😘😘 We are very happy to hear that your find our videos helpful!
      Regarding your question:
      A baby's position is defined by many different things, for example, by the position of your placenta, uterine fibroids (if there are any), your own position, and: your baby's preference 😊. And sometimes, if they have found a good position, it is not uncommon for them to stay in that position for a very long time...
      We are aware of several cases like yours and in none of those cases, there were any problems. All of them gave birth to perfectly healthy babies.
      So, if there would have been any reasons to be concerned, your doctor would have probably already told you. But as long as your baby is gaining weight and is active, there is normally no reason to be worried.
      Also, please note that some women tend to have a "lower hanging" belly throughout their pregnancy and not just when their baby drops. That too is normally nothing to worry about.
      Of course, if you ARE worried that something is wrong with your baby, it's always good to discuss it with your provider...
      We hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! And greeting to NYC (which we LOVE!!!) ❤️

    Is taking longer is better..? What is the difference between 38 week born bby and 42 week born baby

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there 😊,
      one cannot really say that it is "better" if it's taking longer when it comes to the weeks 39-42. It very much depends on the pregnancy case.
      We can only say that for the time BEFORE week 39. In other words: NORMALLY, what WOULD be great is if the baby stayed in there for a full 38 weeks period (i.e. if baby was not being born before week 39) because it gives the lungs more time to mature. An exception is - of course - when there are medical problems with the pregnancy.
      That said, of course, a baby can also be born earlier without suffering from any long-term problems. It really depends on the situation...
      We hope this helps! 😊

      Hi there 😊,
      please note that not all women go into labor before their due date. Every pregnancy is different.
      That said, lots of women complain about pelvic pain at this stage of a pregnancy. Baby's head normally presses against all kinds of ligaments and pelvic bones at this stage... 😊

      Hi there 😊,
      please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Therefore, it may still be too early for your body... It very much depends on your cervix and the position of your baby.
      That said, in general, several things could help induce labor:
      In this video (th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html) we explain several tools to prepare the cervix for labor and to induce labor.
      Moreover, birth ball exercises could help (th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html)
      On top of that, the right sitting position can also support the whole process (th-cam.com/video/K5uxfr0YJ_E/w-d-xo.html)

      Hi there 😘,
      please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. So, it may still be too early for your body.
      Also, it is important to note that when exactly you will go into labor is not only a matter of your cervix, but also of the position of your baby as well as your hormones, particularly, if you are going through a particularly stressful period...
      That said, in general, several things could help induce labor:
      In this video (th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html) we explain several tools to induce labor.

      That said, we would not worry too much! Your body is clearly preparing for labor. Moreover, it is your third baby. In such cases, there is normally no reason to worry that you don't go into labor...

      please note that it is totally normal to be tired at this stage of your pregnancy! 😊
      At this point, the best thing you can do is try to relax as good as possible because that will also help you induce labor. Plus exercises of course -> so basically the things that you are already doing! 😊
      Sitting the right way could also help (th-cam.com/video/K5uxfr0YJ_E/w-d-xo.html).

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, please don't be worried! There is no reason to be!
      Also, if you cannot do any exercises, then there is also something else that could help you turn your baby.
      First of all, try this: th-cam.com/video/L0Fb_HdBtog/w-d-xo.html
      Second, in this video (th-cam.com/video/e-kh6nxGkCk/w-d-xo.html) we show how to turn a baby with breech baby turning exercises and moxibustion. However, we also successfully turned babies with moxibustion alone.
      Simply go into a left side lying position (the one we explain in the first video) and then do moxibustion for 20-30 minutes. Once or twice per day...
      We hope this helps! 😊

    Hello, Love the way you guys explain, thank you for such informative videos. Need a suggestion please, I'm 31 weeks and every thing was very good so far. Had my growth scan yesterday it was found that there was a small TR(tricuspid regurgitation) in the babies heart hich was not found durig anamoly. Doctor say it is trivial and might be vanished when the baby matures much more...but no 100% assurance.. This has got me and my husband very much worried. Could you please give me your opinion on this.

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there 😊,
      we know such a diagnosis sounds terrible. However, you should know that fetal TR is actually quite common and not necessarily a reason to worry.
      It is true that SOMETIMES TR can cause problems later on. However, those cases are very rare. In most cases, it is going to disappear when the baby matures (just as your doctor told you).
      So at this point, please do not worry too much! Lots of fetuses have the same problem but eventually, they are all perfectly healthy. You can only tell if it is going to be a problem later on. Until then, stay positive! Everything is going to be okay! 😊

    Does that mean am in labor?

      @CareAboutLittleOnes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, thanks a lot for your feedback - we are very happy to hear that you find our videos helpful! 😘
      As for your question:
      It's difficult to say for us if you are in labor or not: backache and menstruation-like pain can certainly mean that you are in labor because every woman experiences labor in a different way. It could be pre-labor, it could also be early labor. It could be "drop contractions" which last 2-3 days and make your baby drop in your pelvis. But it could also just be false alarm.
      So, what you could do is take a warm bath (20min tops) and see if the pain improves. If it does, it is probably not labor. At the same time, we would also talk with your midwife. Week 36 is still a bit early. They might tell you to stay in bed - depending on your pregnancy case.
      We hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

Would like to know whether I can do labour induce exercise even baby is not engaged?or once engaged only I should do?
    Today started to do head engagement exercise by seeing your video
    Also could you help me to know in my case Normal delivery is really not possible?
    I hope that cervix get soft and pelvic get expand once after labour starts..please share your view

    • @CareAboutLittleOnes
      @CareAboutLittleOnes  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there 😊,
      first of all, we would like to point out that nothing that you have mentioned in your message means that you cannot have a normal delivery. 😊
      First, your contractions will make your cervix dilate. You don't need your cervix to dilate before labor starts. Second, some babies only engage very late in a pregnancy (some even do it after labor has started. And third, what exactly does your doctor mean by "your pelvis is not wide enough"? Did they measure it? How do they know that it is too narrow?
      So, if your doctor urges you to have a C-section based on those factors only and if they cannot come up with REAL medical reasons why you need one, we strongly recommend that you get a second opinion by another doctor!!
      That said, we would not do any labor induction exercises at this point, but focus on baby's engagement. Don't worry! You are "only" 38 weeks pregnant at this point! There is really no need to worry! 😊
      We hope this helps! 😊
      We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

When i was in my 33-34 weeks i had severe pains and so my doctor gave me some medicine and injection to avoid preterm delivery. Now as there are no signs of labour. My doctor is suggesting for artificially induced labour saying that baby weight might get increased in future and the loop might get more tight. But ultrasound shows that baby's head has not yet engaged though his position is head down but not engaged. What should i do????.. please help me out.

      Hi there 😘,
      please understand that we are legally not allowed to make any recommendations as to what you should do in your situation - although we can very well understand what you are going through!
      We can only give you this general information, in the hopes that it will help you:
      In general, medical inductions are only done if there are medical reasons for them. The lack of engagement is (normally) not a medical reason for an induction (unless something super weird is going on with your baby or body) because a baby can (normally) also engage later on, even after labor has started - given that baby is head down.
      Also, we can assure you that we have come across many cases of women, whose baby had a single loop around the neck. And yet, they gave birth in natural deliveries. And the baby was perfectly healthy.
      Finally: of course, the baby's weight will be higher as the pregnancy progresses. It's weird that your doctors states the obvious. If your baby did not grow, that would be a problem.
      So, based on that, we can only recommend one thing: please get a second opinion by another doctor! Tell them your story and see what their opinion is (ideally after an ultrasound scan)....
      The problem is that 2 pregnancies are never the same. Therefore, what is good for one pregnant woman may not be good for yourself. Thus the recommendation to consult with another doctor.
      Thank you!
      We hope this helps! 😊
