ENFJ mentor - babe threatened arrival early 39 plus 5, (waters broke with distress meuconium) had to be induced (2 gel pessaries) and augmented (oxytocin, max dose) eventually delivered by emergency section at 40 plus 2, due to fetal distress (and maternal TBH!!! ). Was in labour for three horrible days. So glad to leave dreadful hospital - discharged myself and babe early to get home.

ESFP - on time but dragged out kicking and screaming by others after 3 different methods of induction (was xmas and they wanted him out of the way I reckon - not my decision)

ds2 - bang on time
