Inducing Labour In The Late 80's
15 Answers
how did they induce labour in the late 80's? I ask because I was a month overdue, and their attempts at inducing labour didn't work. I was just curious to understand what they actually did. i assume how they work today differs from today.
do they just inject a lot of hormones and hope for the best? in the end, something must have worked, or happened, because i was born 'naturally' eventually.

Physical and droogz -
Physical is - exam, 'sweep the membranes' and possibly break 'the forewaters' by breaking a hole in the amnion
droogz - oxytocin pessaries and or intravenous oxytocin
not sure if it is different now
having a baby is hardly 'new'
Being a month overdue is pretty late - 41 or 42 weeks gestation
it is more likely that your mum was wrong in her dates.
and clearly their attempts at inducing DID work as you still arent er inside.
a\sk your mum - peoples memories during labour arent exactly crystal clear esp if there were more than one child.
