[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not want to do cervidil I would ask to go in morning of and get pitocin. [/quote] This. Particularly since this is your 3rd delivery. I was induced for my first due to PPROM, and it was a miserable experience. My 2nd was a scheduled induction, and it was a breeze in comparison. I went in for a cervical check the day before and, even though I wasn't dilated, the CNM who performed the check said that my cervix was soft enough that pitocin alone should do the trick. She was right. I showed up the next morning, got hooked up to pitocin, and had my 2nd DD 10 hours later, after only 5 minutes of pushing. Ask your provider if they can do a cervical check a day or 2 beforehand, to potentially avoid the necessity for cervical ripening. A lot can change in the next week![/quote]
