I think she's been induced and baby is in distress - a similar situation to me except some of my waters had gone and they were trying to speed me up.

Feely, when it's pre-eclampsia, if the baby doesn't come out sharpish it can develop into full blown eclampsia which is dangerous for Mum and baby...

I hope my saying I wanted an unassisted birth was out of place?

It makes sense why you want a planned c-section. I want to avoid the panic, stress, threats (push now or I'll cut you) and things, so I'd love a relaxed, unmedicated birth. I read a lot about the cascade of intervention, and I suppose I still feel like it was because of me that it all spiralled. Not sure they'd have been happy had I refused the induction though.

That is interesting - what would have happened had I refused the induction? (I had pre-eclampsia).

You need to be careful with Freebirthing feelie as you can be prosecuted if anything goes wrong.

Not meaning to scare but If I had refused induction with Pre-eclampsia that ended up as Eclampsia then both I and baby would have died.

Both my babies were born in a 'they must come now' way

Of course not hunnie! :grouphug: I only freak at that idea cos that means no pain relief and I'm no good at pain!

Is "cascade of intervention" a medical phrase? My midwife-in-training friend used that phrase the other day too

At what point do they decide to get baby out, instead of trying to control it with medication? I wonder, did the induce me because I was close to term, or because of the severity of it?

I should write all this down for when I get round to discussing my notes.

I mean unassisted as in no forceps, induction, internals. I don't mind midwives being there, but want them to only touch me as a real last resort.

LO got into distress and they prepped me for a c-section, but I managed to get him out before the anesnatist arrived. I wonder if I could have avoided the distress by not being induced.

I'd have kicked those two out by now! Laughing in the corner like schoolboys :eek:
