[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks all for sharing. If you opt for induction due to general AMA as opposed to a specific risk/identified issue, is the protocol to get epidural before all else? There was an earlier thread on here about elective inductions, and some responses mentioned epidural before Cervadil/Pitocin, others seemed like they had to start the induction and only get epidural after cervix was dilated enough. One of pros of induction would be minimizing pain - I'd want the epidural first thing before anything is jammed up there. If anyone had a similar induction recently at Sibley I'd love to hear your experience of how it went! [/quote] If you’re induced, the pain on pitocin becomes excruciating once your water breaks. Do NOT let them break your water without the epidural first. [/quote] When I delivered two weeks ago, they gave me an epidural at the same time as the pitocin. It was great![/quote]
