DD1 I was induced at 40+5 and had a 10 hour labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2788352 Fri, 24 Nov 2017 05:53:41 +0000 Bea 2788352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To answer my own question—planned induction for 41 weeks but went into spontaneous labor at 40+5 and delivered 40+6. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2783419 Wed, 01 Nov 2017 10:26:13 +0000 pwnstar 2783419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bea: I was induced (for complications) with my first at 38 weeks, but had a scheduled c-section with my second (who was breech) at 39 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2783380 Wed, 01 Nov 2017 07:44:16 +0000 Bea 2783380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Waiting and not knowing the last few weeks is the worst! Thanks all for humoring me and helping me pass the time. :silly: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2783159 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 23:53:59 +0000 MamaCate 2783159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This wasn’t really listed: I had my membranes stripped at 39 weeks with #2 and my water broke the next day. But my contractions never started so I was put on pitocin once I went to the hospital. Labor was much faster though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2783139 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 20:30:28 +0000 Woolly Mammoth 2783139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced at 41 weeks the first time because, among other things, the baby's heart rate didn't sound good. I ended up having a c-section for the same reason.</p> <p>I decided I would either have a spontaneous labor or a planned c-section for the second (not another induction). I scheduled my c-section for 40+6 to give myself some time, but I never went into labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2783133 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 19:59:29 +0000 PinkElephant 2783133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted spontaneous labor (which was true with #2), but for #3 I had to be induced again...for a different reason, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2783115 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 18:10:17 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2783115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induced with my first at 42 weeks. Had 4 stretch and sweeps and was only ever a 1 cm dilated. My water broke at 39+5 this time, two days after my second successful stretch and sweep where I was a 3/4 and I had had two rounds of “labour inducing” acupuncture. I had a stretch and sweep at 37 weeks and was a 1/2 and at my 38 week appointment she couldn’t find my cervix to do another one so I was very disappointed. I was happy when she could do it again at 39+3 and I was significantly more dilated. I didn’t really feel any different during the weeks 36-the end of pregnancy either. I was trying hard to avoid another induction or going past my due date so I’m happy with how it went.</p> <p>I know it’s so hard to tell how things will go down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782940 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 10:02:21 +0000 misolee 2782940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced at 41w+1 for no real medical reason. Just wanted pregnancy to be over and doctors were slightly worried about a big baby. After 9 cm and 24 hour induction, I had a csec. </p> <p>My second I went into spontaneous at 37 weeks and had a Vbac. Did nothing special for this pregnancy except take care of a very mild 3 year old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782932 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 09:41:23 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2782932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induced with my first at 40+1, was leaking water. Induced with my second at 41+3. I was still trying to hold out, but they didn't like the non stress test results. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782917 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 09:08:57 +0000 bushelandapeck 2782917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced with my first due to PROM. I had my second without induction and went into labor the day before my due date (same with my first!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782916 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 09:03:07 +0000 snowjewelz 2782916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced by not b/c I ran late... Rather with GD I got induced at 39 weeks. But at that point I was no dilated, not effaced, nothing. With my 2nd labor happened on its own at 37 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782914 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:57:45 +0000 Alivoo01 2782914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced for both kids, but it was because my kids were both IUGR babies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782911 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:49:46 +0000 Truth Bombs 2782911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I didn't quite make it to my induction but I was scheduled for one and then ended up going in to labor 12 hours before the induction. But with my second, it was totally different. My water broke at 37+6. So I don't think one induction is an indication of another! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782907 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:25:32 +0000 Becky 2782907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induced at 40+5 with DD1, spontaneous (and fast!) labor with DD2 on due date. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782901 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:17:57 +0000 nana87 2782901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two inductions for different reasons. Lo1 I was being monitored for Low fluid and was induced at 37 weeks. Lo2 was induced at 41 weeks. I’d been making some progress but stalled and wasn’t dilating more (I was like 3 I think? But not having contractions); turned out the cord was around her head, keeping her from descending </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782898 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:09:00 +0000 BeatlesFan629 2782898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Almost identical to @jape14. I was induced at 41 weeks with LO1. With LO2, I went into spontaneous labor at 40+4, with induction scheduled for 41 weeks again </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782897 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:01:09 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2782897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced again, but for a different reason. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782894 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 07:53:33 +0000 Revel 2782894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Induced on my due date with LO1 after my water broke but I didn't go into labor. Spontaneous labor started at 38+6 with LO2, delivered the next day at 39 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782890 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 07:42:20 +0000 jape14 2782890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was induced with LO1 at 41+1. Went into spontaneous labor with LO2 at 40+5 (induction was scheduled for 41+1 again). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-were-induced-in-your-first-pregnancywhat-happened-in-your-second#post-2782886 Mon, 30 Oct 2017 07:29:25 +0000 Bea 2782886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Exactly what the title says. If you were induced with LO1, what happened with LO2?</p> <p>LO1 was induced at 40+2. All was fine, no medical reason. We were just given the option of that day or 41 weeks. I had had no dilation progress for 3 weeks.<br /> I’m 37+3 with LO2 and would love it if it happened on its own but know there’s no way to predict what will happen. Doctor couldn’t find my cervix at 37 weeks but said it was very soft. </p> <p>What’s been your experience? </p>
