On today’s episode you’re going to learn about labor induction. I covered this topic 3 years ago and there is new information in this updated episode. I get a lot of requests to talk about this and I get why. It’s one of those topics that makes a lot of pregnant people nervous. You may have heard horror stories about induction and pitocin. Plus there’s concern about the cascade of interventions or increasing the risk for c-section - so I get it. And on today’s episode I will answer your questions and shed some light on what labor induction is all about!
In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:-What labor induction is
-Why labor may be induced (you’ll be surprised to hear that there are only 2 reasons)
-When induction is NOT appropriate
-How labor is induced and the efficacy of different methods
-What constitutes a failed induction
-Which questions to ask before being induced
