Looking like I will be induced next week. Has any mommy’s been induced before ?
Is it worse compare to yourself going into labor ?
I was induced 3 out of the 4 times I gave birth and honestly, there was no difference in the labor pains or the labor time.
It was tougher for a couple of reasons:
1. First baby, didn't know what to expect.
2. They broke my water and contractions started immediately.
3. Was in labor longer and the contractions were INTENSE!
4. 13 hrs and 45 minutes of pushing
5. Strapped to monitors and IV
6. Needed oxygen near the end due to fatigue
COMPARED TO: #2
1. 2.5 hours of moderate contractions and water broke on it's own 15 minutes before baby was born.
2. NO IV, not strapped down to monitors
3. Had energy all the way through.
Baby #3:
Water broke, contractions started an hour later, went for a mile long walk, came home, showered, baby born at home assisted by midwife and 7.5 hours of total labor.
All 3 without epidural or any kind of pain management... Home birth was the best experience, but the contractions were INTENSE compared to baby #2, induction contractions were def by far the most tiresome and intense. Best wishes!
Induction ended in a c section for me, after 22 hours of labor and 3 hours of pushing 🥴
Not worse at all. Fastest birth ever. Start to finish was 3 hours. Couldn't even get an epidural or pain medicine.

Is this the one yall drink to induce??? I'm desperate
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her ...
It's my turn ladies!
Finally, after nearly FORTY-TWO weeks... I decided to get induced. Baby Violet scared me with some decreased fetal movement and I couldn't wait any longer.


Before u become pregnant think of this
Do I want to be uncomfortable as hell for 40-42 weeks?
Do I want to be in horrible pain for up to 14-16 hours even longer
Can I handle pushing a big ass head through my vagina
Can I handle this with no pain meds(sometimes u can't make it in time)
Do I want to go to the hospital 10x before I'm actually in labor.
Because inducing your labor at 32-37 weeks for your own selfish needs or getting a csection to do it the "easy" way is just plain selfish and FYI a...
Please help!
My doctor is trying to induce me before 40 weeks because she's going to be off on my due date and says my placenta is starting to look old. How do I get labor started?? I don't want to be induced for no reason and I'm thinking I won't have a choice. Please help. What do I do to get things going?
My midwife popped my water. 14 hours later I met my boy ❤️
