Two of mine were inductions but with DC2 my waters went , very slowly at first 18 hours after a sweep. Slow leak all day (I thought I'd become incontinent!) Then gush at 6pm. Contractions started at midnight. Had a bath at 2am, went into hospital at 4am and she was born at 10am.

Expecting DC4 and really hoping for a second spontaneous labour (rather than a 3rd induction) but will be induced if I get to 40 weeks.

Looking fwd to reading others stories and symptom spotting as I'm 34 + 2 weeks now.

@Grumpy19 yeah I like to read others stories too. Hope you get the spontaneous labour you would like.
