Induction 💔 - Natural vaginal birth still possible?

Question

Any positive induction stories? 
My May baby made it to MAY and a whole 40 weeks! But now were being induced because my blood pressure is high. I’m currently being induced now with the Foley balloon catheter and then Pitocin/seratonin IV afterwards. I’m scared it will lead to a c section.

Answer

I was induce. No sign of labor before. Woke up that day. Cleaned the a house. Stocked the fridge and had dinner with the hubby. Walked in like a regular appointment. I wouldn’t progress. It almost got to the point where c-section was brought up. Was like a 4 for ever!!! And all of a sudden I tell her I have to use the restroom and she Checked his head was right there!!! We practice pushing with the nurse until the doctor would call in but after 3 practice he wouldn’t stop coming. The nurse had to
Hold the baby until the doctor came. 
It was slow st first and then it happened fast. I guess it could go either way.

Answer

Induction does increase chances of a c-section but there plenty of successful vaginal births with induction too. I think it really depends on how far along and reason for induction. I was induced with my first at 42 weeks using pitocin. I didnt need the Foley balloon because I was already dilated beyond what the balloon could do (4cm) and I had a vaginal birth.

Answer

I was induced- they started pitocin and I pushed my daughter out 2 hours later! Pitocin was awful for me lol but at least it went fast

Answer

I had an all natural vaginal (no pain meds) induction with my first and have my second one scheduled for this Saturday! 
They generally schedule inductions to reduce the risk of c-section! Hope all goes well for you!
