Hemorrhage is not common with or without pitocin. Inductions may or may not be "routine" in different areas of the country. Most people are induced when the pros of the situation outweigh the cons. I don't believe anyone advocates knowingly dangerous inductions for convenience.

>snip...... What are my options with a second birth? Should I have a c-section to avoid pitocin? Thank you.

Andrea,

This is best determined by a physician who has access to your records and the fine points of your care.
