Induce labour
Anyone can share their experience being induced? When did they induce you and how did it turn out for you? Length of labour/how many weeks you were/ etc?
hi mummy, i was induced at 37wks. checked in at 8am, inserted cervidil at 10am. contractions started at 12pm. 8 hours later, only 3cm dilated :’) rushed down from induction labour ward to triage because was in immense pain and needed the laughing gas to help bc the thigh jab didnt help. 9pm, laughing gas didnt help. couldnt move at all and was moved to the labour ward. 10pm doc gave epidural. 12am 4cm dilated :’). given oxytocin and at 6am i was 8cm dilated. 8am they checked and i was 9cm dilated. 8:30 gynae came in and wanted to do a crash csect cos both my heartbeat and baby’s was no good, but baby was crowning. 8:45 started to push, 9:03 baby was out. normal delivery vacuum. so i guess around almost 24hrs of crazy traumatic labour. :’)
