Induction

Has anyone been induced for your 3rd or 4th baby and if so how long did it take for you to deliver your baby after going in? My doctor said since ive already had 2 kids that it should be quicker this time around than with my first which took daysss. Im going in on Thursday at noon and im just trying to prepare and curious if he'll be here Thursday or Friday and i know theres no way of knowing and everyone is different but just might be nice to hear other experiences
thank you!

2nd section

My first I had a planned section it was great. My 2nd planned section is next week.

Question - did anyone go earlier 2nd time round? Was it a scary experience?

I’m worried go early. I’ve been told I would still get my section but treated as emergency section but I’m just really worried and anxious about that happening.

Would you go to the doctor?

I'm 26 weeks pregnant. Last Thursday, whilst lifting up my daughter, I felt a ping in the middle of my stomach. It didn't really hurt, but it was noticeable. Ever since then, when I lift even light things, or when I walk/stand up I feel a light pain in the area. It is also very sensitive. It's not really overly painful, it really is just a slight niggle. I didn't have anything similar with my first pregnancy. Should I go to the doctor?

VBAC

Has anyone had a successful VBAC after getting pregnant in under a year? I found out I was pregnant 7 months pp by the time I’m ready to give birth il be around a year and 2-3 months postpartum. Apparently they don’t really want to induce if you’ve previously had a c section. Which puts me in a spot of if labour doesn’t progress would I just have to have one instead of being induced?
I’ve also been told by my partners mum that “they won’t give her an option it will be 36 weeks and she will be cut open” as if 😂, I’m sure they wouldn’t do that, it would have to be an elective and I’m positive it’s 37 weeks onwards.

Don't stress

We were debating between two middle names for weeks. I decided I didn't like either while I was in labor and ended up finding a middle name we loved on google during my epidural/induction. Don't stress out if you don't have a name picked before your due date!

Can anyone share what their round ligament pain felt like?

I've got a lot of sharp pain all round the bump and more on both sides by groin... thought it was trapped gas due to iron tablets but not sure now.. 22 weeks pregnant now for context.
