Why isn't labor starting? and is induction likely to be succesfull in my situation? i had my son two years ago and i went into labor at 39 weeks and one day. i was 1cm and 70% effefaced when labor started. thay gave me patosin to speed things up and i end

No : No one can tell you why labor isn't starting... If we knew, then we'd make a drug to make it happen on time, every time (well, i guess that's pitocin!) failed inductions are incredibly rare. Pitocin is synthetic oxytocin, the hormone your body makes naturally to cause uterine contractions. It's highly likely to start your labor, especially if you are at or beyond your due date.
