induction

PS I miss your photo of your little girl, although I love your scan photo it confuses me when I see your discussions, looking forward ot seeing a photo of your new baby when the baby is born

I didn't mind either as I was very lucky ot bounce back quickly from both of them. Each and everyone of us is different

Well thank you. I'm hoping to get a good picture of my daughter with her new baby brother or sister when he or she is born. I was induced 5 weeks early. I had to be induced or have a c-section because well my daughter stopped growing. I wouldn't mine another one as long as the my baby is born healthy and gets to come home when mommy goes home. I rather have inductions then c-sections.

All labors are different weather you have something to start labor or not. Our bodies react differently each time, each baby is carried differently they are different sizes. I was induced for my first and felt nothing till after they broke my water 15 hours later then I felt the contractions and it wasn't because of the protose it was my body saying its baby time. Naturally your body goes in to full labor after the water is broken so it normally is more painful after that but someone its painful before the water breaks its just depends on how fast and how long the contractions are and how dilated you are. I wouldn't mind having another one for my second baby.

Did you read what I wrote? I didn't go into labor after my water broke. I went all night in the hospital with no contractions, except for the ones that the nurse told me I was having that I couldn't feel. They had to induce me at 6 am. Contractions don't just come naturally after the water breaks for everyone.

I did read what you wrote that is why I said all labors or different no two are the same even when your induced or not the medication won't affect if your water breaks on its own or not. I said normally contractions will pick up on there own naturally when the water breaks but it also depends on the type of induction that is happening and the woman's body. Normally after the waters contractions will start for most women it does. Some babies aren't ready to come out when we want them too, or the doctor wants them too. Some times the baby isn't as far as everyone thinks they are that is why a due date is and estimation of when you got pregnant and the only sure way to know how far a long you are is till the baby is born and even then normally the doctor won't tell you who many weeks in to your pregnancy you really where with your pregnancy. That is why some babies that are full terms are stick in the hospital because some times doctors are off on things or the baby swallowed something during labor. This is also why some babies that are preemies are just fine and able to go home like a normal full term baby it just depends on a lot of factors how a labor will play out and how it'll feel. As long as the baby and mommy are okay the labor really doesn't matter how it happen or delivery happens. I"m not going to say my next labor is going to be as easy and pain free for most of my labor with my first born. It could be more painful and my water could break on its own. Labor might start and then stop and not progress, the babies head might not be in the down position and if in the down position it doesn't mean that he or she will come down all the way and put pressure on my cervix to even get labor going with help from what ever medication they think will help get it going. I might have a smaller baby then I did before or a bigger baby then I did before. I might have to delivery before 35 weeks like I did before or I would go a full 40 weeks with no complications what so ever. Like I said above where you think I didn't read what you said. I said all labors are different everybody's body reacts differently each time. It depends the baby, the way you are carrying your baby the different sizes. All those play a role when it comes to labor and weather a women needs help to get labor going and for some women even with the assistance of help to get labor going nothing happens. In your case with your second child nothing happened so the doctor did a c section because being induced for some long can have bad side affects on your body and the baby as well as the fact of not having any amniotic fluid any more around them for so long puts the baby as a higher risk for a lot of things. For me being induced was a lot different then yours. You where in labor technically weather you have a contraction or not for about 24 hours or more. I was only in labor for 15 hours. 1 hour of active labor which was transition into delivery for me. Which none of that happened till after my water was broke at 4cm. For me like I said like most women my labor went from really slow to really fast and any doctor will tell a mom once the water is broke labor and contraction should pick up. "Should" part which for me it did and it went really faster then the my doctor thought I would because it was my first baby and she was being made to come early. She was ready to go after being waiting 16 hours and about ready to eat a burger soon after she was born. For me I still wouldn't mind being induced again if I need to be for my child's safety like I did my first or because I went to long after my due date or being in labor for so long with no activity really going on. For me I rather do anything then have my doctor tell me I need to have a c section that would scare me and it freaks me out because that would be my first major surgery. I would have to know like a head of time that they are going to do this to get my head in the right place with me being okay with that happening. That might mean after that point I won't be able most likely to have a natural birth because not all women after having a c section can have a natural birth.

I had no choice but to be induced when it comes to your kids health so times you can wait till happens naturally and some times waiting for it to naturally happen it never happens Its still a natural birth if your induced or not there are natural ways to start labor with out medical help. Normally at 35.5 weeks women don't go into labor on there own with out some help unless something is wrong with the baby or you have more then one. I really didn't want a c section and i got my way. After being induced once I wouldn't mind getting it done again I just wish that I have advances notice to pick the day of when it'll happen unlike last time where I had 12 hour notices.

I had and induction I had two choice either being induced at 35 weeks or have a c-section at 35 weeks. I too the induction a much faster recovery from that since all they are doing is giving you your own natural hormones to kick start labor. I liked mine I would never have a home birth too many things can go wrong with home births is what I feel. I would still rather have and induction again then a c-section. 2 weeks with out holding my other child would be like hell for me and not bending either would suck.

Lucky I was on pitocin for my daughter I was in labor for 16 hours. I really didn't feel much of anything with pitocin in my system till after they broke my water then I felt some pain and was uncomfortable. But I didn't have any pain killers really no epidural for me. The first 15 hours it took me that long to even get to 4 to 5 cm for my doctor to be able to break my water and I had no choice really in what day to be induced I was induced on my brothers 27th birthday and I had my daughter the next day really early in the morning and I was hungry. If I have to deliver early I would like to be able to pick when so I have more a head of time notices especially with a toddler at home we need someone to be with her when labor starts or if they do a c section.

With my twins I had no choice but ot have a c section as one of my babies was breech and that one needed to come out first to make room for the other baby to come out

That's pretty common with twins or multiples every few are ever all in the head down position.

I had and induction with my daughter. I had two choices either a c-section or let them induce me so I too the induction because I wanted to feel labor I didn't want it just done and over with, with out trying. But since it was 5 weeks that they induced me my doctor did explain that it might be hard on my daughter to deliever her because her heart rate might drop and if it does that means they are doing a c-section weather I want them too or not. I got induced it was 16 hours of labor but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I felt nothing the first 15 hours they broke my water at 2am and hour labor had my daughter. So with this pregnancy I wouldn't mind doing it again as long as I don't need a c-section I would hate that but if it comes to that then I will do it.
