How long were your labours after induction????
Well im seeing my midwife on thursday to ask about being induced at 37 week (10 weeks today) due to SPD.
Saw physio on friday and she refused point blank to give me a support belt due to the unexplained bleeding and suggested i try reflexology or acupuncture through my doctor (not too keen to try the needles though)
So........... hopefully il be able to have her a little early, i really want to try avoid a section if possible.
Ive heard that they are more painful but how long were your labours with induction???

This time i'm due to be induced 6th June due to SPD. So I don't know whether it will take ages or not.
it can vary from woman to woman and it all depends on how favourable your cervix is on examination and how they induce you. good luck.xxxx

my experience of being induced wasnt that bad at all, just that it was soo long and i ended up having a epidural.

I was induced at 41+3, I had the gel 3 times but it didnt work! I had my waters broken for me and then put on the drip, I was left in labour for 20 hours before they decided to give me an emergency csection. Wasn't a nice experience!!! But I suppose it was best to get her out quickly!!! Good luck

i have spd too!
this is my 2nd preganancy (its twins - not great for the old SPD!!!!)
last time i was induced. had gel - just one. it took 27 hours from gel to actually giving birth.
good luck with your induction honey.
re the spd - have you been to an oesteopth?
last time i didn't - but i have this time - and for me it has really helped.
i have had one of those belts this time round too.
(femmebrace)
but all it does is scratch me - hurt my bump - and make me sweat. it is no help what so ever - so don't worry you are not missing out!
my midwife says she has never met anyone who was helped by the belt....
have you contacted the pelvic partnership?
they have great advice and a list of oesteopaths etc to send out.
i dont know if induction hurts more as summer was my first and was only about 2 1/2 weeks ago, but i have been told induction hurts more and the fact i had no waters left aparently hurts more as well!!!!
good luck!!!
Ashleigh I had started on my own at 9.30pm on the 26th September, went into be induced, they gave me the prostin anyway and she arrived at 02.20am on the 28th!!!
Physio advised reflexology and accupuncture and asking about induction on thurs at my 28 week checkup so thats what im gonna do.
For those sho have been induced with SPD - did you have to beg for induction????
I really want to try avoid a section where possible xx
