I honestly have no idea if/when they stopped the pitocin.

Its just that pitocin is usually the reason the babies bp goes down and they rush you for a csection... did your own natural contractions take over where they could take you off pitocin?

I was induced with pitocin and had a wonderful labor. I got started on pitocin at 930am and my daughter was born at 238pm. I didn't tear or have any complications at all.
