Induction without epidural!

I know someone already made a post about this, but I didn't follow it. And I too would love to hear feedback from women who had a successful pitocin induced labor without any pain meds.

I was induced with my first due to High blood pressure. I had horrible back labor and just failed to progress, so I got the epidural 18 hrs in. And I still didnt fully dilate until 6 hrs later and pushed for another 3 hrs.

I am currently 38 weeks but Dr isnt planning to induce, unless I am at least a week overdue. I would love to deliver without any pain meds this time around. Just need reassurance. Any feedback from someone who's experienced it or at least tried as well would be nice. Thanks!
