I think this should be in the health section as there may be obstetricians in there who will have the medical knowledge to give you.

From my own personal experience, I was induced with my son because he was 10 days late.

Once the decision is made to induce, a gel is placed on the cervix to soften it and a pill is given to start contractions. Some hospitals insist that an epidural must be given when the woman is induced because the contractions are believed to be stronger than normal.

Both baby and mother are monitored and the baby is delivered.

I am sure there must be other medical reasons why babies are induced.


Thanks so much chaircover, but someone told me inducement is administered by giving drip to the woman. Some also said the 80% of induced women would eventually have CS. Is this through

Me am scared o shocked

Inducement is forced labour, I was induced before I could give birth to my son cause he was 1wk due; the process requires one been administered with
drips i.e drips are passed into the womb section or something not sure, gosh was extremely painful
Re: Inducement In Child Birth by Nobody: 5:37pm On Aug 10, 2009
drips are the normal iv fluids given to a patient.

The difference in induced labor is a hormone or some kind of inducing chemical is added to the liquid, which then stimulates contractions.

Both my sister's children where induced and she had vaginal births. No C-section. They picked the week to induce her and when the time came they gave her a call and she went in and had the babies.

So @Goldtito lets get this straight.

You only require 2 factors; age & month of conception

so . . . . .

All 28 year olds who conceive in January 09 will have a boy

All 28 year olds who conceive in Feb 09 will have a girl

All 28 year olds who conceive in March 09 will have a girl

and so on. . . . . . undecided

. . . . . All 28 year olds who conceive in April will have hermaphrodites?

shocked shocked shocked cheesy

Labor may be induced if a pregnancy is overdue. It may also be induced if there is a medical reason as to why the baby needs to be delivered early. or some rare instances, it may induced because a person wants to deliver by a certain date for whatever reason. the induction is done by administration of pitocin(oxytocin) through an IV pump. Patient also gets IV fluids with it. The baby's heart rate is monitored on a monitor because the induction could cause fetal distress. Most patients also take epidural because of the pain associated with the contractions.
