My induction for my first was great but I was induced with the drip as my waters had broken 36 hours previously and there was risk of infection to the baby. I had an epidural same time so I barely felt the contractions and he was out within 6 hours! The worst part for me was waiting the 36 hours for the bed with no sleep and then having to push on zero energy. I know it can be quite a long process so I would just say to take lots to occupy you, be prepared for the wait, rest if you can and trust you are in the best place for you and baby!

I'm in the middle of one right now & so far so good! I'm 37 weeks & have placental insufficiency with a little baby, I had a catheter put in my cervix yesterday at 3pm had it removed 24 hours later & my waters have broken but I'm still 1cm dilated so we're of to delivery shortly to start the hormonal drip, but so far so good xx

I was induced with my 1st and within an hour of having the pessary put in I was in full labour and she was out in 8.5 hours. You just don't get the build up of pain you go straight to the intense. Your a mummy, you've got this! X

I had an induction with my first, I had the pessary at 12:30 in the afternoon and my waters broke as I got into bed at 12am! Contractions started from then and baby was born unassisted at 18:23 the following day!

Best of luck!! X

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Worth the wait and pain. Baby girl arrived at 7:15 this am weighing 7lbs 6oz. She is so calm and chill.

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Growth scan

So had my 28 week midwife appointment- all good but after measuring bump- I’m now waiting on a scan within a few days as bump is measuring small I’m not worried as I am guessing a tape measure is hardly accurate but
For anyone who has been in a similar position- what was the outcome after the scan? Was the baby on the smaller side ?
Was baby measuring normal?

Thanks
