[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is data supporting induction at 39 weeks if you’d rather not have a c-section. [/quote] I did an induction for this reason, because I was over 35 (I believe that is where the data applies, though I could be wrong). I think if I had a second child, I would not do an induction. The cervidil itself actually led to my going into labor, but then they still gave me pitocin. Then my contractions were too intense and we had a lot of issues with the baby's heart rate, which I know understand to be due to the induction process vs. natural labor. At one point they ran in and put oxygen on me. Between that and aside from pushing for 3 hours and him having to be vacuumed out, all it all it was not a great experience for me. All of this said, I can't say for sure that it was due to being induced and I know everyone's experience is different. BUT I just wouldn't take induction lightly if it is not medically necessary.
