Question

When do doctors usually talk about inducing? I'm almost 39 weeks. My baby's head is low , cervix is soft but not dialating at all. My cervix has been soft for 3 weeks now.

Answer

Induction is very painful as you are putting chemicals in your body, not made for your body. I know how hard and uncomfortable you are (I'm on babies 5&6) but I encourage you to hold fast your love will be in your arms in No time! Induction comes most of the time with a lot more "snowball" issues then just letting your body do its job naturally. Good luck mama!

Answer

I was induced with my second and the pain was the same as my first with natural contractions. No matter what labor is going to be painful, you can't avoid it... I talked to my Dr about being induced with my second because my first was 9lbs 13oz. With my second, i had it done a day before his due date and he still was a big boy 9lbs 11oz, So with this one i had discussed it with my new Dr and we will be seeing how big my baby is at 38 weeks so that i don't have a really hard time pushing like i did with my 2 boys.... It really all depends.

Answer

At 38 weeks my Dr told me she thought I should induce a week early(at 39 weeks) because I was very adamant on having a vaginal birth. With the size my baby was looking if I waited for a natural process I would have had to have a c section. If you want to get induced talk to your Dr now. Definitely get an epidural tho! The pain is magnified. Best of luck

Answer

My midwife started discussing induction with me when I went in for a checkup at 40+3 and was still not dilated or effaced at all- my baby was also measuring pretty big as well.
