Hi,
I had a little girl Natalie on 19/11/03. I was 11 days over and was induced. I thought this meant that they would break my waters and thats it...didn't realise until I was in hospital that I'd be on the drip (oxytocin). My labour was so painful, although I got through without any drugs or gas...probably due to the fact that I was stuck on the toilet for 5 1/2 hrs cos I was too scared to move!! I read afterwards that the drip brings on contractions really hard and fast... I was wondering if anyone else was induced and found it unbearable? Might just help when it comes to having my 2nd bub....although certainly not pregnant yet!!
Any other stories from anyone?!?
