CERVIDIL INDUCTION | The Induction Series Pt 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лип 2024
- If you are having an INDUCED HOSPITAL BIRTH, you need to know about CERVIDIL. When it comes to labor induction there is more than just one way it's done and a cervidil induction might be one of the options you have to be induced. Cervidil contains prostaglandins that help ripen and prepare the cervix for labor to begin. In this video, you learn about what to know about labor and how to prepare for an induction using this prostaglandin containing induction technique.
Labor and delivery, especially a medical induction, doesn't have to be a guessing game, Mama! Knowing what to expect during an induction is attainable through adequate childbirth education, even if it's just a crash course that you get through the Induction Series Playlist! In the rest of the playlist, you will get your question, "How is labor induced?", what to expect during an induction, and what you need to know about preparing for birth when inducing labor.
And if you are having a baby in the near distant future and want access to empowering birth education for a happier, healthier, and easier birth, make sure you check out the BUILT TO BIRTH ONLINE CLASS here: www.builttobirth.com

I was induced with Cervidil at 40 weeks due to GDM. My doctor said that it would likely take 2-3 attempts because my cervix was unfavorable. I was induced at 9:30 am, at 12:15 pm, my water broke! Everyone was so surprised. My baby was born at 7:00 pm, it was a very positive birth experience.
Glad to hear this. I am getting this in a couple days.
@@ermieburns Good luck, hope you have a positive experience too! 🙂
@@Amalthea_Ivy thanks Mandy! I’m scared but it’s for medical reasons so I know it’s best for the baby.
@@ermieburns It'll be ok. I was scared too, but the procedure itself was painless. And they will monitor you and baby to make sure the medication is tolerated. It's also easily removed, mine came out on its own once my labor was picking up.
@@Amalthea_Ivy thanks for letting me know!
I'm in the hospital admiting room now, going to get cervadil soon. Reading everyone's positive experience in the comments is making me feel a lot better
Same!
Same
I was induced with cervadil at 41 weeks due to my baby not wanting to leave her comfy warm home. I was induced on June 25th 2am and got it taken out at 2pm. Water broke at 6pm and gave birth at 9:12pm. My cervix was only 10% effaced and I wasn’t dilated before using cervidil so for me to give birth the same day was amazing.
I was induced using cervdil and i was closed according doctor. My doctor induced me 2 pm and at midnight 12 am my baby born. It was positive birth story.
Getting induced on Monday(3 days). Currently no signs of labor and I’ve tried all things to induce naturally. Glad I found this video before my induction to calm my nerves.
Videos like this are so helpful, together mom share experiences and help with all the anxiety. Doctors don’t really explain the whole process and research is all we have.
I had a good experience with Cervidil. I was given Cervidil on a Thursday night at my scheduled induction. About 10-11 hours later I gave birth & yes they gave it to me at night so I was able to rest in the hospital room! I was at exactly 41 weeks on the following day and after about 17 minutes of pushing my beautiful baby was born. I definitely needed an epidural at about 5-6cm dilated because the contractions were pretty intense. :)
Did they have to give you pitocine after or just go into labor with cervildil ?
@@juliagom1715 After 12 hours I went into labor! No Pitocin needed! :)
@@areumfibers oh wow because I was just induced with cervadill only was about 5 cm them stopped so they topped me off with
Pitocin and I almost died of pain but had my baby within a couple hours
Is it painful when they insert the cervidil?
@@pcmcompcm6297 Yes but its quick and after they insert it you don’t really feel that anymore.
I am getting induced tomorrow night. I am already 1.5cm and 50% effaced. I am so glad that I found this video, it helped with some of the nerves.
I was induced with cervidil at 40 weeks because of blood pressure, but I had close contraction the whole night. Slept maybe 3 hours with Nubain:/
They then induced with pitocin and when they broke my water I was only 3 cm. 40 minutes later I was at 10😳 I consider it a positive experience overall :) I didn’t want the epidural and I stuck it through even when contractions were on top of each other and I was so exhausted.
I was induced with cervadil this past Sunday at exactly 41 weeks.
I went in at 6am the insert was placed at 9am. Contractions started at 12pm and stayed 2-3min apart until 9pm from 9-12am they were a minute apart until my water broke. At the point of my water breaking I was 4cm I went from 4-10cm in one hour and delivered at 01:22am. That hour after my water broke was incredibly intense. I was unprepared to go from 4cm to transition to pushing in an hour. I was able to deliver without pain medication as planned but wow that last hour. I only pushed for 15 minutes.
Love this story I can only imagine that last hour. May I ask if they HAD to do cervical checks when using the Cervidil? I have seen a lot about how cervix checks can be anywhere between just uncomfortable to utterly painful, so I really want to avoid them but if the checks are necessary with being induced.. I want to make sure I’m aware of them beforehand.
I was induced with cervadil at 37 weeks 11/22/23 @ 7 pm due to her being iugr small and me with pre-eclampsia. Made my vagina pretty sore and hurt a bit when they put it back halfway through because it makes you a bit sore. Got it taken out 12 hours later at 7 am and a balloon catheter inserted into my cervix. Those contractions were insane so at 1 cm 9 AM I caved and got an epidural very lovely experience after that. I got to take a nap with my peanut ball and wake up at 12 pm at 6 cm dilated. Kept using the peanut ball and dilated to 10 cm. Pushed my baby girl out in 20 minutes. My baby was born 11/23/2023 @ 3:02 pm on Thanksgiving Day ❤. Only had a small 1st degree labial tear. Very very good and positive birth experience. Seriously guys, women don't know what they can deal with until it's our time to give birth. You got this mama! 👏👏✨💓💓
I'm being induced on next week Wednesday, I am high risk at 35 and have an igur baby. I have learned so much
Thank you so much for this video! I really need to start looking after myself. ♥️
So helpful thank you!! 💕
I was induced with cervidil at 41+6, waited until the very end to try and have a natural birth. My experience was pretty negative only because it was the most intense thing I’ve ever experienced. I practiced breathing, hypnosis thing, everything. I wasn’t able to use any of these tactics because of how fast the labour was. I was induced at around 10:30 AM, and my baby was born at 6:30 pm. From 2:30-6:30 I felt like I didn’t breathe the entire time. Contractions were one on top of the other and I never got a break in between them. I’m thankful it was fast, but I really hope I don’t need to get induced this time. I just want a normal labour!
This video was so helpful Thank you so much.
Just got cervidil at 1pm... feeling tightening come and go and some slight cramp sensations in lower belly and vagina. Thanks for sharing this and for all the comments... nervous but excited too.
Going to toilet for no. 2 since putting in cervidil feels strangely different for me... not painful but not comfortable unless i stand. Fingers crossed this will be a positive experience for me🙏🏽🤞🏽🙌🏽
I had a Cervidil because I was 41 weeks and three days and I gave birth within 4 hours of having it placed in me. This was my second pregnancy and my first pregnancy was over 4 years ago. My cervix was 3cm long and fully closed when I had the cervidil placed inside of me, and the doctor said that it would most likely take me multiple attempts of inductions before I even came close to being in labor. He said that my cervix was really high up prior to having the cervidil placed, but he said that my cervix was on the softer side.
I got my cervidil placed at 12pm on February 14th 2022, and I was monitored for an hour and sent home at 1pm. I had very mild contractions that were about 30 minutes spaced apart. However around 3pm on the same day (about 2 hours after coming home), I had the worst contraction and my water broke with that contraction. After that my contractions were extremely severe and spaced about 2 minutes apart.
I was so terrified about giving birth at home so I called an ambulance. By the time I got to the hospital they told me that I was 100% effaced and 8cm dilated. I was crying out for an epidural but they told me I was way too late for one. After 13 minutes of arriving at the hospital I had the urge to push, and within only seven minutes of pushing my daughter was born ❤.
I feel like things probably progressed really fast because my daughter was low for the majority of my third trimester and I was told that her head was measuring small throughout my pregnancy.
Needless to say I hope to never be induced ever again. My overall experience was pretty positive, but definitely scary as well.
amazing, thank you so much for this explanation. i have to present Dinoprostone (Cervidil) for my nursing clinical tomorrow lol. subscribed!!
Was given this and had contractions 30 minutes after. Was given it at 10pm. When my midwife checked me at 5:30am the next day, I was dilated to 10cm. They made it seem like I would have just slight cramping, but it made me contract very close together. I didn't need pitocin. I 39 w pregnant and needed to be induced because pre eclampsia.
2 years after my induction, I'm finally watching these videos and now have a better understanding of why my labor was so difficult. At the same time, I'm also confused with my experience particularly with the expectations of my midwife. Immediately after placing cervidil in I had nonstop contractions for 15 hours with zero dilation and hardly effaced. My midwife wanted to send me home after these 15 hours but the hospital would not allow it. I realize now that it should not have been out of the ordinary if my body was slow to dilate. Overall, the cervidil put me in distress and it mentally/physically broke me down. It was traumatic and I felt like a failure because my body wasn't "doing what it was supposed to do.". I was allowed to use the birthing tub after 15 hours and this was my saving grace. the warm water helped relieve my pain and for once I was able to control my breathing. After being in the tub for 2 hours, I finally dilated 2cm and was then offered the epidural. I was in labor for 36 hours total and pushed at 9cm. I'm nervous of being induced again with my second but having gone through it once and now re-watching induction videos, I have a better understanding of what to expect and how to be a better advocate for myself. Thank you.
Thank you for these videos!
I may have to be induced because I have gestational diabetes. I’ll be 39 weeks on Thursday, and my midwives are hoping I’ll go into labor before 40 weeks.
My first baby I was blessed to have a natural, non medicated birth in the hospital with my midwives. I was really hoping for the same thing again! I had him at 39+6.
I had been exercising, using the birth ball and walking a lot, but I got Covid and I’m nervous to have her too soon now! I’m still pretty weak, but ready to start doing anything I can to go into labor naturally! My midwives have a “midwife brew” that they will let me try before being induced. But I’ll be trying the walking, birth ball moves, acupressure, raspberry leaf tea, primrose oil, ect as soon as I feel well enough!
What induction would you try if you had to be induced? I’m trying to stay calm and in the right mindset and trust that everything will work out!
thank you so much!
I gave birth with this and Pitocin and it took me 18 hours now I’m due in 20 April with my second praying to have normal birth without an Induction
Ripening agents: Several agents (Cytotec, Cervidil) can be used in the hospital or outpatient to help ready the cervix for labor in women whose cervix is long, closed or “unripe.” These “ripening agents” are easily inserted in the vagina or taken by mouth and work for 4-12 hours
It was a terrible experience getting cervidil for me. The contractions were nonstop and so strong and it happen maybe 2-3 hrs after they put it it. It was just painful along with pitocin but I had pitocin alone in previous delivery and wasn’t as strong and as frequent as with cervidil.
39 weeks had cervidil put in at 4am it’s 8:47am and waiting to see if is doing anything
Does anyone know if I have to get an IV place when they give me cervidil? Or can I wait for that until pitocin the next morning?
This video was so helpful! Could you do one on a foley balloon next 👀?
Right!! I was going to ask this. I have always heard to ask for Foley before meds.
I hate that thing 🙈😩😩😩😅
I’m 41 weeks tomorrow and being induced! At my dr appt last week, I was already 3cm dilated and 80% effaced. Do you think they will just go ahead and start me on pitocin? Thanks!
That's definitely a reasonable thing for them to do! You can always discuss this with them and make sure it's the best option for you!
I have GDM and I’m being induced with cervidil in a few days (will be 41 weeks & 3 days) I’m so nervous 😬
Praying for you and baby that all goes smoothly !
I’ve had 2 failed inductions 😖 had the choice for a 3rd but my body needed a break…..
May I ask mamas if cervical checks are necessary? I know it might seem like a slight pain compared to the delivery, but I’ve heard many painful stories from some of when they had their cervix checked for dilation and I just want to avoid being checked altogether and let baby do its thing. All in all, Does my cervix have to be checked or can I deny the procedure?
Note: if you are Canadian they will place it monitor you for an hour and send you home
Yes!! That's how they proceeded when I had my baby a year ago. It was also placed in the morning, and my contractions started around 2 am
Thanks for this, i have an induction date in two weeks and by doctor was explaining the process of cervidil and the way he explained it was that I'd be going home after it was inserted.
Is this done at the hospital or ob clinic
@@MyBlanket mine was at a hospital
Yes I am going in a couple days for this and the doctor said I would be sent home.
Not even 20 minutes after they put this in me I was in hard and fast labor. Nurses said I was 1 of 2 women they’ve seen it do this to. Thank goodness only first time moms get it.
Wow 20 minutes!!! That’s quick!
Im a second time mother and I got it?
I hope I have it as simple as you with induction number 2
Why would only FTM get it?
Same for me..it was an absolute nightmare.
Mine came out lol I was going to the bathroom too much
Is it normal for the removal to be extremely painful
Has anyone gotten cervadil the pill? Thats what they want to give me since i have a large cervical polyp 😢
If you're thinking of getting an epidural anyway, get one before the Cervadil is placed. This is a shoelace that is fairly painful to place with no lube.
Just got that in and it was so damn painful!
@@baileybrewster3940 Worse than a colposcopy. Not colonoscopy, colposcopy. Hopefully it did its job for you.
Didn't need an epidural because I barely knew I was in labor with Cervadil...at 7 centimeters, I was busy laughing.
@@zen_mindset1 Lol cervasill makes u laugh?
literally hurt worse going in then giving birth
Mine one is staying inside 24 hours not 12h
I labored for 18 hours with Cervidil and it did not work so I was bullied into a csection. 🥺
That is my biggest fear about being induced
Who places the cervadil suppository?
Mine was put in by the nurse assigned to me at the time
Ok who did this hurt for getting inserted?!?!
Why don’t you tell the truth about cytotec? I almost lost my life and my child’s life using that medication!! At the age of 22 I had to have my uterus and cervix removed, never could have another child and my baby suffered from seizures. Wasn’t our lives important????
Oh my god what happened???
danngggg
What happened?
I am refusing cytotec. Look it up on FDA's website. I'm on baby never 6 and the doctors are almost insisting on induction.
Cytotec is not the same suppository as Cervadil, yes I have heard that Cytotec is not the way to go. I am so sorry you were almost taken from this life, so glad you are still with us. ❤
You need to make ur videos more educative , scientific instead of talking a lot of unwanted stuff
Find another video if you don’t like this one! Everyone else finds Bridget’s videos useful. If you want science do the research for yourself
