Induction

Hi girlies, been in hospital from 8.30am, they've put a pressary in (kinda like a long bit of string) said that it's a 24 hour pressary.

Anyone any idea if it will take the full 24 hours? I had it with my first & it took a full 24 hours starting at 1cm dilated, this time round this morning I was 3cm??

From what I believe, if contractions don't kick you into full labour, they'll break your waters... give it some time for the contractions to begin and if they don't, they'll pop the drip up.

Good luck! I'm being induced this afternoon! x
