Induction date set !

I am currently 40+3 was always told oh it's your second you will go before your due date 😑 Not this little man induction set for January 24th !!! last week we were not even dilated to a 1 and everything was hard so they were concerned I had an unfavorable cervix ! Today finally we are 2cm and 80% effaced everything is thinning out thankfully fingers still crossed we do not need this induction and he'll come on his own before we are 41+3 🙄
