Induction ???

Question

Hi guys!!! How long was your labor when you were induced?? Any tips on how to mentally prepare for that?

Answer

First induction was 7 hours. Second one was 6 hours

Answer

From start of pitocin till when my son was born was less than 10 hours, I went from a 5-10 and pushed him out the last three hours. I pushed for all of 15 minutes maybe??  Honestly don’t go in with a specific plan that HAS to be followed. It’ll stress you out more than anything cause no birth goes to plan, something seems to always come up that wasn’t accounted for. Go into it with an open mind, calm, just let everything go with the flow. It’ll make for an easier/quicker labor for you. The more you stress that your plan isn’t going how you wanted it to the longer your labor will be cause you’ll start stalling.

Answer

32 hours 🥴

Answer

Like everyone else is saying, it took a long time. If you have to be induced, it's definitely better than a c section in terms of recovery, but if there's no medical reason to be induced, try to let baby come on her own. I held out as long as I could with my firsr daughter, but they wouldn't let me go past 42 weeks. Even that late, the process still took forever. Looking like I might be getting another induction this time due to GD, and am trying everything to avoid it!

Answer

Answer

I was induced with my first. From start to finish it was 13 hours and 10 minutes of pushing.

Answer

I am a first time mom and I haven’t gone into labor or been induced. But my sis n law was induced with her first and she was in labor for 36 hours before they performed an emergency c-section. She was good once that happened and this also was in Canada. Another friend of mine got induced earlier this year and was in labor for about 6-7 hours after being induced. It can be very long or short. Just depends on how your cervix wants to be. I hope it goes smoothly for you.

Answer

3 years ago with my first, 6 hour labor after being induced. Was on pitocin which sucked, Dr broke my water and then after getting an epidural, she was born 2 hrs later with 45 minutes of pushing. Really great experience over all!! Hoping my second will be a similar experience. 😬 Good luck to you! ☺️
