If you were induced

babybaillie · Jan 24th, 2010, 13:21 PM

Just interested to see how many of us that were induced ended in an emergency section. I had 2 normal deliveries, and this was the 3rd baby and the pain was horrendus compaired to normal deliveries and the more u speak to ppl i hear they ended up in sections too. So wonder why they induce so many ppl

I was induced after nearly 40 hours of labour and ended up with an emergency c-section due to Brandons heartbeat drastically dropping quite a few times!

Ive heard that the oxytocin drip can make babies sleepy! x x x

I was induced with Skyla due to GD, never been induced before but the pain was unbelievable. At least it was quick though 2 1/2 hours!!!

i seem to be the odd one out i was induced and had a lovely labour i actually enjoyed it lol

I only had pethidine and tht was more to help me sleep in between contractions.

I didn't have a c-section but the doctors were on the verge of doing one the whole time. My induction took 5 days until they could break my waters then I was in 'proper' labour for 16 hours, my labour was HORRENDOUS and so traumatic. Daisy's heart almost stopped more than once which I'm sure was caused by being given too much diamorphine and in the end I had a forceps delivery and ended up with loads of stitches inside and outside and Daisy being terribly swollen and bruised.

came across these interesting articles:

doctors do not usually tell women about the risks:

i know that most of you gals live in the UK so i don't know as much about it in your country, but this is a big problem in the US

(not saying that inducing is not necessary at times, i am studying to be a midwife)

I was induced due to high bp but developed severe pre eclampsia 10 hours after the process started. I went on to have the waters broken and oxytocin drip for contractions. It was really painful despite an epidural and I was asked all the questions etc for an emergency c section if needed.

I was told by the midwifes afterwards that I was really lucky to have had a vaginal delivery but that was due to the pre eclampsia rather than actually being induced.

I was induced and didn't have a section.

If he hadn't of been born when he was it was going to be one, my BP rocketed to 180/120 and his heartbeat had dropped but as soon as they mentioned sections & epidurals I pushed harder than I ever thought possible and out he came.

It was my first baby so I can't comment how it compares pain wise.
