That’s crazy! I have heard similar stories on first where staff are dismissive though. First ones are usually slower so they build this silly assumption. My poor niece was over 24 hours. Nightmare!
We had two more after that and both times they brought her in early to induce so she wouldn’t have a repeat “unscheduled home delivery” haha.
Similar here. Our second was scheduled for induction and he decided to come 2 weeks earlier than that!
Side story on the birth of our first. My wife’s OB/Gyn actually made it to the delivery. When she entered my wife asked her if she could have an epidural… The OB/Gyn replied; “You’re going to have a baby, not an epidural.” My wife was too far along and getting an epidural might have set things back. So yeah, she delivered our first old school.
Our second there was enough time for an epidural, but the anesthesiologist had a heck of time getting the needle in. He shook his head and said if it doesn’t go in this time I need to stop… Fortunately he was able to hit the right spot, so her second delivery was a lot easier.
