Hey!! Did these help YOU?‼️

Question

Please discuss in the comments! My midwife said we can discuss these methods of induction at my appointment Thursday. I'm 39+2 today and need this kiddo out. 😂 Tell me about your experiences with these! Either way it would be DRUG-FREE for me. So no pitocin or anything to "help" either of these along.

Answer

The foley worked for me after 2 rounds of Cervidil failed. It hurt like a 🤬 though!! 
10/10 don’t recommend unless you absolutely need it.

Answer

Midwife tried to give me a stretch and sweep yesterday at 39+3 but my cervix was too high up and thick 😭 going in for the tape tomorrow and I'm going to ask if they can attempt another stretch and sweep before the tape goes in.

Answer

My doctor doesn’t do either. 😭

Answer

Membrane sweeps do nothing for me. The bulb alone did nothing for me either during my induction with my last baby. I was 41+ weeks and I sat at 3cm after the bulb fell out with contractions causing no changes for over 24 hours and ended up having to start pitocin and it took another 30+ hours. Biggest regret!
