Induction experiences please!?

Question

I would like to know the process and If in the end was a vaginal or C-section birth. I will be 38 weeks next Wednesday and do you to just stational hypertension and consistent headaches she wants to induce me then. I went to naturally with my son at 41 weeks so I just would like some feedback if anyone could do so thank you so much!

Answer

I've had 5 inductions and going for my 6th 18th march
Starts with a sweep then cervidil or gel then some use a Foley balloon then they break ur water and if ur not really moving they do oxytocin.
1st was a 13hr labour just used gas and air
2nd 4.5 hr labour gas and air
3rd 2 5 hr labour gas and air
4th 6 hr labour gas and air 
5th 7 hr labour gas and air
Everyone is different I dont really dilate past a 4 until oxytocin is given I have an unfavourable cervix 🤨 
Hoping this labour runs as smooth as the rest
My uterus has become over worked and doesn't contract like it should with the last 2 so they will do extra steps to stop heomaraging like that did with my last one.
Good luck it's not all that scary and doesn't always end in a ceaser

Answer

I was induced due to elevated blood pressure at 38 weeks with my first pregnancy. It was definitely a slower process and I ended up being in labor for 36hours before I pushed for 30min. Delivered vaginally with an epidural. It was a really good experience for me and I actually liked knowing I was in the hospital and would have baby that day or the next. Vs going into labor at home and rushing to hospital...not sure if I would be admitted or send home.

Answer

My first I was induced at 37 for kidney issues. I never got past a 4. Took me two days to even get that far. So I then had a c section. My second I contracted for two weeks, went in at 39 weeks with no dilation or anything. So I had a repeat. This time I’ve been in SO MUCH PELVIC PIN, so many contractions, blah blah blah. I’ll be checked next week for the first time, but I’m not expecting anything. 😕

Answer

I was induced at 39w4d. I was already having slight contractions but they were somewhat unnoticeable and not progressing anything. My induction started at 8 am and I had baby vaginally with no pain meds at 11 pm that night. But I was already 3 cm, I was a few days from my due date, it was a favorable induction and most likely would not go to csection unless I had issues. I think I wouldn't be induced before 39 weeks unless I had to be. I just see it not going well most of the time
