Mechanical induction

[Drunkenjelly]

Hey lovelies!

So I found out today I’m being induced next Friday but as I went through my birth plan with my consultant she mentioned they now use something called Laminaria sticks to induce labour?? Has anybody had these or heard of them as with my first baby I just had the pessary, but they don’t use that straight away anymore so it’s either these Laminaria sticks or the balloon😢 so if anyone has had either please tell me your experience!
