Oh ok - it was Syntocin they'd referred to in another thread.
Thanks for that Maddysmummy - can't belive they'd have that so detailed on the net.
I feel so stupid for having gone through the whole thing and 2yrs later I'm only just realising all this stuff. I was very poorly informed I think & had no idea what I should've been asking etc.
Yeh, I'll have to ask for my birth notes I think....can you get them this long afterwards? We're wanting to start trying for a second in a couple of months so want to be more informed for next time....hopefully a VBAC but not sure.
It's funny about the forceps because I was told she never engaged even through all the labour.....it makes me wonder how far I'd got by the time they did the c/s because it was an hour waiting for the friggin anaethestist (sp?) & I was under epidural. You gotta wonder when you're told it's an 'emergency c/s' when you wait an 1hr for it to be done. I was in total panic about it and told them to turn the heart monitor off because her heart rate kept disappearing and it stressed me out big time! After 12hrs it I wasn't even 3cm...she was slightly prosterior I was told after the c/s but don't think it was the sole cause of failed induction.
