ok can now report that no two three or whatever inductions or labours will go the same way...
i have now had three inductions, one ended in a ventouse, one in a very natural almost primal fast delivery and the third a caesar... so plan for everything maybe!?

My two births were completely different. No 1 was very medical, 6 hours, delivered by the hospital team at National Womens. No 2 was an unexpected home birth due to a one hour labour, no drugs and delivered by a midwife (almost delivered by my neighbour but luckily the midwife arrived in time).

I agree with you Chonny Arnica drops are a godsend!! I was advised with DD1 to take them and now I use them for just about everything!!
Good luck

well i really wanted a water birth, and laboured some in the pool, but had meconium (sp?) in the waters and mw wasn't sure if it was maturity or stress. Silly boy was as calm as could be, so wasn't allowed back in. Shower was great tho!
