[quote=Anonymous]I was induced for both of my pregnancies: First pregnancy: on pitocin for TWENTY FOUR HOURS and no real progress (also no epidural). Turned off overnight, turned back on in the early morning. When turned back on, strong, painful contractions, with progress. Epidural in late morning, water broke soon after, pushed for 2+hours, 9.5 lb baby finally arrived. Second pregnancy: cervidil, then cytotec which finally got things moving after 12 hours. Pitocin added, then 5 or 6 hours later, epidural, then water broke in 3 or 4 hours.. Transitioned quickly, pushed once, out popped 10lb+ baby. So in other words, somehow the epidural has always helped speed up my labor, but has always come after the pitocin was started.[/quote]
