Question regarding labor/contractions (sort of a spin-off)
I have read alot over the last few months of moms going to the hospital already dilated some (4,5 or 6 cm) and the doc inducing them anyway. Why is that?

Sometimes your body doesnt progress after that... so inducing helps push things along

Because my water had not broken, and DS's heart rate was elevated.
Never again would I induce..pitocin is evil, my epidurals failed, I went thru 14 hours of back labor hell just to end up with a c-section anyway.

In my case, my dr was concerned that my DS was not moving as much, and I was not feeling any contractions at 4 cm. The last appointment she had me eating candy etc, to get him moving. I was induced the next day, and had a really good experience. My son was born 5 hours after she broke my water.
