Am currently 41.3 with my second child and may have to resort to a second induction on the weekend.
Had a terrible time with the first induction - the full range of interventions apart from a caesar and was pretty sick afterwards. Was hoping to avoid that this time, so have been trying every natural induction remedy and have had one sweep already. Next one on Wednesday.
The MW said that for a second induction, it's usually a pessary and the breaking of waters which triggers everything, then straightforward birth from then on.
I would much rather go the natural route, but I obviously breed lazy babies and am just so tired of waiting.
Opinions from those who've had two inductions on the difference betw the two?
