    Balloon induction

    When i was induced at 37 weeks they used some sort of balloons they inflate they were terribly uncomfortable and didnt work for myself has anyone else had this type of induction? What were your experiences?

    I think they call this the Attards (sp?) Method. Two balloons inflated either side of the cervix to get things going. Its a non drug fuelled induction method and one that I'm looking for more info on here about.
    I wonder if anyone else can shed some light on this please?
