I've got a ob appointment next week but just thought i'd ask you ladies in here to see if i can get some insight.

I've been reading a lot about labour this time around as i am *hoping* for a natural birth (was induced with sytocin, and had peth and gas with dd). With DD a piece of placenta didn't come out and i haemorrhaged, was taken into theatre for it to be manually removed, then had 3 blood transfusions over the next couple of days.

Because of my history is it still possible to have a natural third stage??

Have any of you experienced something similar?

Is it recommended i have the syntocin injection to get the placenta out asap?

i'm pretty clueless, so any info would be great
thanks
