Induction vs Spontaneous Labour
This video is a lesson from the Reclaiming Childbirth Collective.
An induced labour is very different to a spontaneous labour. In today's climate of widespread induction, both women and care providers can feel unclear about the distinctions. However, understanding the difference is essential for:
Women
- Deciding whether to have an induction (consent).
- Planning a positive induction experience and knowing options.
Care providers and Educators
- Providing information, care and support to a woman who is considering, planning or undergoing an induction.
- Providing safe care to women and babies during the induction process.
