Yeah , it depends lor, Everyone is different, so the experience for 1 mummy might be different from the experience of another. so while learning from others experience is good, don't assume that that would be how your labour process is going to be like.

Just go in with the bare minimum of expectations or assumption of how the labour process would be like and you will be pleasantly surprised I am sure. :)

For me I was ignorant about it, when I did VE I was already dilated 4cm which I didn't feel anything previously. Gynae say my tolerance level seems high. The VE is uneasy... but must relax, don't be tense.

So not sure isit after she did VE then my contractions trigger that very day, just an hour or so later. Gynae say my tolerance level seems high. The VE is uneasy... but must relax, don't be tense.

the brochure i was given says, go to hospital if u experience any of the following:-

a. contractions that are increasing in frequency and intensity;
b. bloody show / discharge;
c. reduced fetal movement; and
d. leakage of amniotic fluid.

very good theory knowledge but .... idk if i know what to do when d day comes

reduced fetal movement, why must immediately go hospital?
is it cause they scared the umbilical cord entangled?

I didn't feel it, was still working on Monday walking around. Tuesday appt at 4pm, see Gynae at 5pm then realised dilated. Went home and contractions started at 7pm... Admitted to hospital was in operating Threatre at 8pm contractions was every 2mins, at 9pm it was every 1min. Didn't know waterbag broke while clearing bowels, Gynae wanted to break my Waterbag then realised it already broke. The whole delivery process don't know is it I cannot think or ignorant. Delivery was spontaneous after 20mins I had my epidural -_- lol... waste money.

The first time the same gynae did VE on me, I was relaxed and did not bleed at all, just a bit of soreness that went away after a day. But the 2nd time, it was hard to stay relaxed. She was running late and I could hear her loudly asking the nurses where I was, and barged into the labour ward, where I was strapped to the CTG. She didn't give me any time to mentally get ready, immediately put on the gloves and did the VE. Then immediately after that, she agitated me further when she said twice, "High chance of c-sec", even though she has repeated the same sentence to me for the past 3-4 weeks already. I could feel the blood draining from my face. Then later in the afternoon, the slight bleeding started and I'm still bleeding a bit today.

Gynae said inducing when you're overdue (41 weeks) is different from inducing before that, coz at 41 weeks it's likely the cervix is more softened. If I had stuck with my old gynae, she would have wanted to induce me at 40 +5 if I wasn't in labour by then, coz she's not willing to wait beyond that.

My gynae also mentioned that she will induce me if my baby is not out by EDD. Between 40 to 41 weeks. She's british and explained that in UK, gynae will most likely let the MTB wait it out, even up to 42 weeks. Just that in SG, its done differently.. No right no wrong.
