Yep you are right, cause my cervix was still high and firm, and they wanted Kameron out, it took two lots of gels to get me to start dilating. If you have made no progress after the first lot of gels, they redo it again 8hrs later up to a maximum of 3 times. (well that is what my hospital does anyway)
So I was induced at 10pm on a Friday night and again just after 6am the next morning. They checked me at 2pm just before doing the 3rd lot and i was 2cm dilated so they broke my waters instead, and Kam was born 1hr and 20mins later.
I was already 1cm dilated before I had the first lot of gels with Lachlan, which were done around 4.30pm. Had waters broken sometime after 9pm when it was discoverd i was 7cm dilated, and she only checked because i said it felt like my insides were about to fall out LMAO, and I was really groaning thru contractions. No Epidural.
