I've never been induced. I am a needlephobe so I'll hold out until absolutely necessary. But two of my sisters were induced for their first, which is relevent.
Younger sis had horribly painful birth, but no other intervention.
Older sis ended up with episiotomy and forceps due to baby in distress.
I was induced with all three of my bubbas, due to high blood pressure.
I had the gel inserted, my waters broken and the drip with all three. For all three I used gas, birthed vaginally with no tears. My first labour lasted 8 hours, the second, 6 and the 3rd 4. All three were fabulous experiences
my cousins girlfriend was induced on wednesday due to the baby stopping growing. he was born at 38 weeks.
she had a 28 and half labour from start to finish i think and she had a ARM aswell.
he was born at 11.54pm on thursday weighing 5lb 4oz...hes still not home due to probs with his blood sugars..she had gas only and a small tear.
im guess shes another sucess story but good luck hun.
love rach x
i was induced with #4,#5,#6,#7 baby..only due to #3 baby was only a 25 minute labour, and he was crowning as i arrived at hospital, so it was my decision to induce as i lived over an hour away from the hospital, so didnt want any roadside deliveries...all my inductions were all around 3-5 hour labours, and normal vaginal births, i was also induced around the 37-38 week mark
