Delayed induction anyone?

Hi, has anyone had an induction booked in but been called up on the day and told not to come in yet as they’re too busy. How long did you end up waiting for? I was mentally prepared but now feel the anxiety of waiting for a call at any time. Really hoping they definitely call me in for today!

Yes it happened with me I was booked for 12 midday and told to wait as they didn’t have beds available and I ended up then getting a call 2 hours later and was booked in around 4pm.

@Anisa oh that’s positive news, mine was also for midday! So hopefully it won’t be too much of a wait

About a day and a half x

Yes, mine was delayed for 24 hours but once I arrived at the hospital (5pm) things were pretty quick from then on.

@Becky one thing I didn’t want to hear, waiting until the next day but I do understand there could be some emergencies that come in. Glad they did speed on with things for you once you were in though!

Same thing happened to me I was ment to get induced 3 weeks before my due date because of complications but they induced me on my due date which led to complications like I knew it would! I know hospitals trying their best but their so over run it's pulling them to the ground! Xx

@Kyia oh wow a 3 week delay is quite long! I hope everything was okay on the end. I’ve luckily had a call to go in shortly. Yeah you’re right, it’s literally in and out just to get through people. I’m hoping I’m just in and out myself tbh!

I waited a week - to the very end of my induction window rather than the first or precise day
