Питoцин при стимуляции родов: почему одним сразу, а другим нет? Нормально ли это вообще?

Question. When I was induced with my first two they gave me pitocin immediately. My cousin was to be induced today at 7am and they told her she can’t have pitocin until she’s 2cm, and they keep giving her the pills to soften her cervix. Is that normal?

Idk how normal it is, but they gave me one of those pills before starting pitocin. I dont remember if it did anything or not.

I had to have a medically necessary induction with my first daughter and they gave me pitocin right away. With my second daughter it was an elected induction and they gave me the pill. It didn’t work so great for me though and after 2 doses they ended up giving pitocin.

It depends. My doctor told me the success of an induction is dependent on your cervix - dilation, softness, etc. Her cervix may not have been in an ideal condition for pitocin right away.

I wonder if it’s different in every state 🤔 cause I was induced with my first two and with my second I was only 34weeks when I was admitted and 36 weeks when I had her and I wasn’t dilated at all prior to the pitocin

@lottyyydottyyy, Was her induction elective or medically necessary?
