I didn’t have an induction but I was meant to and ended up going into labour on my own whilst staying there waiting for my induction, but if Harriet is working request to have her she is the most down to earth midwife and amazing at her job. I had her and she made the whole process really incredible!

I had an induction last June! Couldn’t fault the process or team at all.

Went in on the Wednesday evening, had pessary for 24hrs- then they gave me a gel for 6hrs as I hadn’t dilated enough and told me to try mobilise as much as possible. They checked me a few hours later and they broke my waters. Told me to mobilise which I spent a few hours doing however
I ended up having to have the hormone drip and a epidural. The midwives were so supportive! They broke my waters on Friday morning and I had my son Saturday at 6am.

I felt as though after I’d had him it was a little rushed to move me on. However they did manage to get MLU to have me as I was low risk as was baby. (My wishes were to have a water birth in the MLU)

They brought a light from the MLU up to labour ward to try and make it as relaxing as possible for me! My parter could stay the whole time. Once again team were lovely!

I hope you have a good experience too! Xx

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
