Morning My Son and his partner are expecting Twins, they were eventually admitted yesterday afternoon after a 6 hr wait for soace. It was arranged some time ago that this would be the plan at 37weeks, they apparently have so far used a gel to ripen the cervix and start labour, from what my son has said that's all they' did yesterday, there still sat on delivery and when I last heard this morning she had no pain and they were waiting to hear if gel was being used again, however they do use it again if labour doesn't start they cannot do anything different for 12hours. I could understand this approach if it was a single pregnancy and the baby was late. I was surprised nothing else has been tried like a sweep or breaking waters that gel seems as bad as those passaries, I had 2 inducements and 1 Ceaser some yrs ago in the same hosp where my daughter in law is, at that time early medical inducements were always given a sweep 24hrs before planned induction then placed on hormone drip with breaking waters, apparently they've been told no hormone drip will be tried and they may break waters it seems to me they will leave her then when she's exhausted and had 2 failed attempts the decision will be removed and they will say she's no longer fit enough for a twin birth and section her. Ive tried texting my soon and advising him to insist there consultant is called and a plan talked through so they can then relax knowing exactly what's going on. The midwives can control too much especially if delivery is very busy .Im praying for them and hoping a good decision is made sooner
