Induction of Labour (Fraser Health) [English] Permalink Public
For most pregnancies, labour starts on its own. For some pregnancies, labour needs help to get started. ‘Induction’ is when we start or ‘induce’ labour for you. This is usually done when your doctor or midwife (care provider) feels the risks to you or your baby are greater than the risk of carrying on with the pregnancy. (English) Colour
