Labor Induction: Why, When, and How?

Focusing on precautionary reasons for induction—suspected big baby, release of membranes, impending postterm, and routine induction at 39 weeks—Labor Induction: Why, When, and How? gives you the data you need to decide what’s right for you. In addition, you’ll learn strategies to implement your choice, whether it be care practices that promote safe, healthy birth if you choose to await labor, guidance on techniques for bringing on labor, or, should induction be medically indicated or simply your choice, what practices the research establishes as best promoting an induction that’s problem free.
