Induction?

Question

What does being induced mean? I've never bin induced. Is that when they give you a shot to get labor started?

Answer

Being induced means that they medically get your labor started. They usually put a patch with cervadil on your cervix to soften it. Then they will give you Pitocin through an IV which will make you have contractions. They may break your water as well if your contractions aren't picking up enough. It's basically forcing your body into labor.
