Annie, you sound like a sister after my own heart! I had six natural childbirths, and I'm a believer in doing things naturally as much as possible, too.
She has been drinking enough fluids, and was not dehydrated. The fluid level may be related to lack of rest. She works all day and is on her feet a lot.
Her fluid rating dropped several times, although at the moment it's fine.
I am not sure why the doctor wants to induce.
He's been concerned for her for the last six weeks, though, and doing more than the usual number of ultrasounds.
GratefulGrace--thank you for praying, too. I so much appreciate your love and support. Thank you!
