Is pitocin necessary?

Question

Answer

It was necessary for me because I had a water leak but contractions never came. 
If you labor and progress well naturally, no.

Answer

It didn’t help me at all with my first I will never get it again. All it did was make my labor harder it didn’t help me progress what so ever

Answer

Depends on the person

Answer

For me it was, 21hours(or so) after my water broke, had contractions all the time but only super slowly increasing in strength so I did not dilate past 6cm. The put me o a drip, got an epidural, fell asleep for about 2 hours, woke up because I felt I had to push and the baby was out 14minutes later.

Answer

With both my contractions started slowing down, so I got it for both and then they infused it wide open after I had them to help my uterus contract.

Answer

I think that varies by woman. With my first I didn’t need it. With my second I was having contractions back to back but she wasn’t moving down and I wasn’t dilating so I needed it.
