Mitral insufficiency can be caused by dilation of the left heart, often a consequence of heart failure. In these cases the left ventricle of the heart becomes enlarged and causes displacement of the attached papillary muscles, which control the mitral valve.
Inducing labor can take a few hours or as long as 2 or 3 days. It depends on how your body responds to your treatment. Inducing labor may take longer if youâre pregnant for the first time or if your baby is less than 37 weeks.
I was induced with both my children, the first because I was a bit ill (kidney infection) and we needed him out. And the second was because she was 2 weeks late! (no one needs that extra 2 weeks!) The first labour took 36 hours, one lot of cream and further induction IV drip, as cream wasnt enough to kick start it. Second labour was 17 hours, same story, cream wasnt enough, IV drip.
