Hi everyone have not been on mumsnet for about a year. dd now 21/2 and dh and I decided a couple of weeks ago its time for a brother or sister. So a couple of questions: it took us 8 months to fall pregnant first time, will it it be quicker or longer this time?
But my main concern in the delivery, I was 10 days overdue 1st time therefor I was induced, I went into labour about 3 hours after the gel was inserted and was in labour for about 18 hours but I only dilated to just over 9cm dont get me wrong I did get to the pushing stage but only for about 45mins before they decided to section me. So my concern is that if I go over my due date they wont induce me just put me in for an elective section - but I want the chance of labour again. I watched a programme once about a girl who had an emergency c-section the first time and was induced the second time and had a vaginal birth. Can someone please give me some advise because if or when the time comes and I walk into that consultants room I dont want to know nothing and just go along with whatever he tells me.
Sorry for the big long story but I have been trying to find some medical websites for info but cannot find any.
