[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is a "gentle induction"? I can't imagine that you wouldn't need pitocin, and that stuff is a bitch. I wouldn't do it. Just say no.[/quote] what's wrong with pitocin? [/quote] If used inappropriately, it can trigger fetal distress, i.e., "pit to distress," as some physicians will order, which then leads to a C-section that could likely have been avoided if the pit had been used more judiciously. In many women, it makes contractions horrifically painful. That wasn't my experience of it, but it's more common than not.[/quote] My experience with it was horrific contractions and almost ended up with a c-section. However I ended up getting an epidural to manage the contractions, and was able to get the baby out at the last moment before the doctor was going to move us to c-section. In my case, baby came early due to PPROM.[/quote]
