I do not want to be induced. They labor is harder, so I am against having potocin. (The shot they give you to induce labor.) However; my doctor said that they now recommend it for everyone after the baby is born to make the placenta extract easier. That there you are less likely to have hemroging with the potocin. And that there will be less blood loss. So that sounds like the obvious choice. But potocin causes the contractions to be twice as painful. But it would only be until the placenta comes out. But, that is my bonding time with my baby, I don't want to be in agonizing pain during that time. So what do you think? Go for the potocin or not?
