With DC1 I had a failed induction. I managed 12 hours of latent labour, made it to 4cm and had no further contractions. 18 hours later I was examined again and found to be 0cm (at this point it was 5 days since my induction began and I'd been an inpatient the whole time). Cue EMCS.
Now expecting DC2 I saw a new consultant at 13 weeks to request an ELCS. Apart from being dismissive, the other thing that's bothered me is their assertion that they've never known someone dilate and then close up again. So, has this happened to anyone else and what were you told about it?

Dilated to 4cm, 18 hours later no longer dilated - anyone else had this?
