I was zero dilated. Labor was almost 20 hrs. that ended in emergency c section. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction/page/2#post-2277805 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 11:35:43 +0000 78h2o 2277805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went into labor spontaneously with my 1st and had her at 39w5d (after 36 hrs of labor).<br /> I had a scheduled induction with my 2nd and also had her at 39w5d (10 hrs after start of induction). The induction was basically one of convenience (my parents were visiting from across country and could only stay for a few days to take care of our 2 year old and my husband could only take one day off of work, so we scheduled for a Friday so that he'd be there for sure and we'd have help). I was dilated 3cm though before the induction and had been having prodromal labor for days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction/page/2#post-2277803 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 11:34:47 +0000 mrsjyw 2277803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep, membrane sweeps put me into labor both times (40w2d with ds1, 38w with ds2!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction/page/2#post-2277796 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 11:31:09 +0000 youboots 2277796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a scheduled induction for 39w and 4d for GD.

Once I got to the hospital, I was induced. So I started labor on my own, but I was also induced. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277488 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 07:51:47 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2277488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induction x2. </p> <p>Both times though I responded really well and I think my body was ready. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277485 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 07:50:50 +0000 Adira 2277485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No induction.

Oops! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277399 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 06:35:38 +0000 yin 2277399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went into labor naturally both times. Originally my OB wanted to induce me at 39w for GD and concerns of low birth weight for LO2. I convinced the OB to wait until 40 as long as my ultrasounds were normal. I went into labor on my own at 39w 1d with no issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277390 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 06:07:53 +0000 GrapeCrush 2277390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also answered the poll based on the title. </p> <p>Yes, I was induced. Induced with my first at 40w6d, ended up needing a csection. RCS with #2. </p> <p>I've never been disappointed about not having vaginal births, it does make me a little sad that I never went into labor on my own. We wanted that "OMG! It's happening" moment. Ah well *sigh* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277343 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 00:49:39 +0000 lemondrop 2277343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Water broke and my first came on his own a week early. </p> <p>Almost did with my second- contractions for a couple weeks, was on the wait list for induction for 3 days, but they couldn't fit me in. I walked and walked, then had a horrible headache (high BP) and went in on my due date to get checked, and I went into active labor during the NST. Go figure, labor started the second I sat still :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277338 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 00:16:00 +0000 delight 2277338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: oh no I answered the poll wrong too! Haha</p> <p>I did not need an induction. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277332 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 00:02:06 +0000 Torchwood 2277332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No induction for sure! LO arrived at 33w1d. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277328 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 23:50:47 +0000 erinpye 2277328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to be induced both times! The first due to low fluid, the second due to being horrendously ill, losing weight, high BP, and it was a good thing they did it because I was diagnosed with Pre-e in labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277319 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 23:33:41 +0000 MrsStar 2277319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an induction with LO1 at 38w 5d because they were worried about growth (plus have a bleeding disorder so they wanted a "controlled" birth)<br /> LO2 I went into labor naturally the day after my due date. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277316 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 23:29:47 +0000 ALV91711 2277316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My water broke at 38 weeks, then contractions started. DS was born the next morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277311 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 23:17:08 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2277311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had amniotic fluid leaking on my due date but no other signs of labor. Therefore, my body had to be "augmented" to get labor going, because they wanted to avoid infection. Unfortunately, 30 hours later, I never progressed past 3-4 centimeters, got a horrible infection with a high fever, and needed a c-section. Not how I thought labor would go, but we are both healthy so that's all that counts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277308 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 23:15:09 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2277308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induced for pre-e at 37 weeks. My body basically wouldn't do anything no matter what they did (it just wasn't ready) and I ended up with a c-section. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-go-into-labor-without-an-induction#post-2277305 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 23:06:23 +0000 BlueWolverine 2277305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induction at 40+6, but it didn't work and ended up with a C-section. Not being induced again. Either I'll go into labor naturally or have and RCS. Induction was miserable for me. </p>
