Cytotec does not have FDA approval for the purposes of labor induction. I can't remember what it is approved for, but hopefully someone else will remember.

Stephanie, Two of my three have been induced because of bp issues. Marshall was with pitocin after my water broke while on bedrest. Be prepared to possibly need an epidural with a pit induction. Those contractions came much harder and faster than with my other two babies!
Kenna Rose was induced with Cytotec and by breaking my water. I'm one of the lucky ones to not have problems with a Cytotec induction- do avoid it if possible. The gave me the first dose of cytotec vaginally. When my midwife showed up, she was fuming that they'd done that without telling her. She switched me to taking the Cytotec orally. The Cytotec started the contractions and prepared my cervix. After 12 hours, they broke my water and Kenna joined us just about five hours later perfectly healthy and fine.
Sarah, praying for you today!

Stephanie is in Canada, so it might be a bit of a different story here.
I was given Cytotec when I was induces to deliver Faith, but had no problems. I had never heard of it before. If i was to be induced again, I would ask for cervadil.

I've written down cytotec with a big "no" beside it, and cervadil with a check mark...hopefully that will make sense to me tomorrow.

Well Stephanie, I think I PM'd you my numbers ... if you get confused, tell the staff to call me -- I'll set them straight!!! (Even if I have to drive a few hours to do it in person ... they'll know better than to mess with a preggy mom of - almost - 5)

Kara, I have your numbers on my phone. Thanks! Hopefully I'll be okay.
Megan, I have pretty well just been online...chatting, lurking, doing puzzles, watching youtube and movie trailers on apple.com...I've been pretty relaxed, but thank goodness I don't have to do this for a long period of time.
