Listening to your birthing story gives me hope which is what i needed. Im going to get induced this month. So I’m glad u let other women out there besides me that it can be a happy and peaceful labor and delivery.❤

[@OXGiaNinaXO]

I’m getting induced tomorrow night and this video made me so calm. I hope to have an experience like you! My cervix is 80% effaced which is good. I also have a good pain tolerance and I’m not afraid of needles so the epidural shouldn’t be a scary experience. I am pumped!!!! So ready to meet my baby!

[@AS-iu5cx]

Can you do an update comment pls? I’m getting induced July 16!

[@ilianamedina2331]

Im 39 weeks and scheduling an induction at my next visit ! Please update, how did it go??

[@cozyaholic]

I hope everything went well girl! 💕

[@OXGiaNinaXO]

The birth itself went great and when it came time for the epidural my contractions got really intense really fast! The epidural was such relief! I was admitted July 2nd at 6am and gave birth on the 3rd at 4:30pm.

[@breannabroussard8137]

So happy for you, I get induced tomorrow. So thankful for these videos and positive vibes! Congratulations 🥹

[@briannawilliams9014]

I go in 12/11 and this made me feel so much better. Some people are judgmental about this but it’s a lot being pregnant and I’m ready! Thank you so much.

[@ShadesofSage]

Congratulations momma🥳! Thank you for sharing your birth story ❤️🙏🏿!

[@SirenaWomanWarrior]

This was like the simplest, least traumatic elective induction story I’ve heard on KZbin. Lol so happy for you and baby

[@cozyaholic]

oh girl, had my second baby 5 months ago and god had other plans for me to say the least bahaha. Contractions were SO strong, within 4hrs of starting active labor she was out! Didn't even get through my IV bag at the hospital hahaha

[@selenamutchler3498]

Getting induced Dec 7, 2021 I truly hope I have a positive experience. I am so happy to hear yours went rather well 💓

[@shaee0707]

Congratulations ‼️❤️ love this positive message and encouragement Thank You 💓💓💓

[@DWBehindTheLens]

Love your energy! I’m scheduled for next Monday. Congrats to you! 💗

[@cozyaholic]

DWBehindTheLens Omg woohoo! I wish you guys a safe and happy delivery!! It’s absolutely life changing 🥰

[@EmGrace4012]

Currently 39+2 and my next appointment is also at 39+4! If he hasn’t come in his own by then I pray they let me set an induction date! Thank you for sharing your story ❤

[@EmGrace4012]

An update! I had him at 39+5. Went home after my second appointment discourage at no progress but hopeful with an induction date set for 40+1. Well, my water broke that night around 1:30am and he was born at 11:20am.

[@carypelton369]

Thank you for posting this!!!!! I’m currently 28 weeks and I’m hoping to get induced at 39 weeks. My anxiety is super horrible and this helped a lot!!! Thank you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@sabaappi5080]

How was your experience my water broke they are going to induction me and I'm scared

[@dakotafairbaugh4848]

I'm doing an elective induction. Wednesday at 5pm (39 week and 3 days). Cant wait! I feel you when you said that you are over being pregnant 😂

[@otiphanyv]

Like so many in you comments on this video, I’m getting induced tomorrow! Thank you for sharing your experience - I’m so glad that it was calm and positive, and I hope mine is the same 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

[@Hannah-tz7gf]

How did it go?

[@otiphanyv]

It went great, thank you for asking! My OB was fantastic, and post-epidural, labor was a really gentle experience. My daughter came in healthy with no complications for me or her. Induction was fine, but I wish I had known about my options for pain management going in. I went from no pain (and no contractions) to *very* active labor and all the pain super quickly. Things were pretty great after the epidural, though. My kiddo is amazing and the highlight of my whole life, so I feel very lucky and grateful.

I need a tutorial how to edit photos I’m obsessed with the presets you use!😍😍😍😍

[@cupcakes1026uwu]

[@G_Lob814]

Thanks for sharing! I'm looking at elective induction next Friday at 39w2 due to my Midwife going on vacation the week of my due date 🙄

[@debracruz7843]

Congratulations I go tomorrow am

[@queenbaybee8]

July 8th is my birthday I'm getting a elective induction July 10th ! Pray for a safe delivery for me ❤

[@madilove6660]

How did it go? ❤

[@lauren8126]

having an induction on the 30th and I hope I’m as dilated as you are just to help things go more smoothly lol. this was very helpful, congrats mama! ❤️

[@cozyaholic]

AGHH soo exciting girl!! I definitely recommend doing daily exercises to try and induce labor, even if it feels like it’s not doing anything! 💕 I feel like that really got me dilated lol!

[@lauren8126]

@@cozyaholic definitely going to try that! 💓

[@amyricherson5986]

Hi! How did you request to have an elective induction with your Dr? :) I am considering this

[@cozyaholic]

Amy Richerson as long as you’ve had a healthy pregnancy you can ask! Some doctors don’t like offering it while others do. Just let your dr know that you’d like to do an elective induction at 39 weeks if they offer it at your hospital! The doctor then submits a request for you 💕

[@lillyflores2165]

@@cozyaholic when did you put the request in and everything?? How far along were you?

[@bagarbilli007]

So no vaginal tears or cuts while delivering your baby????😮😮😮😮

[@sanaqayyum5723]

Is elective induction possible at the start of 39th week?

[@cozyaholic]

Yep, that’s when I did mine!

[@sanaqayyum5723]

@@cozyaholic what if baby is not engaged

[@loop9532]

I wish I was given this option, the doctors at my hospital didn’t do elective inductions and I ended up going over my due date by 4 days 🥲

[@cozyaholic]

oh no! That sucks, I'm sorry! Ever since having my second baby at 40+1 weeks, I will say that I enjoyed the wait. It was so special
