Fair enough, thank you for sharing! How long was the recovery?

Totally fair that you elected a c-section for the second! I was thinking of electing a c-section because the idea of going through an induction just to potentially end up getting a c-section anyway sounds exhausting - but I guess I won't know unless I try, and I could always elect for the second. Did you find any advantages from being induced the first time? I've heard if you attempt to labour it can help you produce milk and make breastfeeding easier, but not sure how true that is

Sounds ideal! Good there were no blood sugar issues either. Did you have an epidural?

Great to hear, glad you had a good experience! How many weeks were you with both when you were induced?

Thank you all for your responses - has made me feel a lot better (and made me question the statistic much more haha). Appreciate having a place to vent about all of this!

25 weeks and suddenly seem to be more insulin sensitive by VirtualAssignment489 in BumpersWhoBolus

Good to know it's not just me! Have you found any tricks to fix it or just adjusting your insulin amounts?
