re: For those who had a partial placental abruption...

They thought it would be safer than labor I believe.

They want to induce me and don't seem too concerned about the placenta. I just have my own concerns lol

If you do end up doing an induction, what they did for me because they were worried about rupture is a 'trial' labor to see how my body handled it. I was put on extremely low dose of pitocin overnight. The next morning, they increased the amount so that I was uncomfortable, but not enough to start thinking about pain management. That second night, they shut off the pitocin completely to let my body rest. The 3rd day, they increased the pitocin up full force and my son was born within a couple of hours almost painlessly.

That sounds great. One thing I am really happy about it is I talked to my doctor yesterday and he said if they do induce me and nothing is happening, we can stop after a while and wait a few days or a week and try again, it won't automatically mean c section.
