This happened to my wife, almost the exact same amount of time. They decided to induce labor. She should have just asked for the c-section right away. Worst part was this was during the early days of Covid. The hospital policy was that once I was at the hospital I was not allowed to leave. I had to stay in the room with her and our child for an additional 3 days otherwise I could not come back. No visitors allowed either, which was actually kind of nice tbh.
We live far away from family so it was just us and a doula with us in the hospital. I wasn’t even induced, just my labor (but the epidural really slowed any progress I had made). I was probably close to a C-section, I pushed for 3.5 hours and I don’t think I could’ve done much more.
