Being induced stories??

Question

Being induced tomorrow morning would like some stories to ease my mind as a FTM. 
Also how many hours after being induced did it take to have your baby? Thanks in advance :)

Answer

Here’s my short version of my induction from 10/8! It went sooo smoothly and I didn’t feel any pain until transition, but it wasn’t terrible! I was in labor 10 hours and pushed for 30 min!

Answer

MAKE SURE THEY GIVE YOU AN ULTRASOUND BEFORE THEY INDUCE YOU! My hospital DID NOT and I went through 11 hours of labor for a RN to check me and she was concerned so she called the doctor in they FINALLY did an ultrasound and he was breach. He had been breach this whole time. The whole induction part is not terrible though. Boring, but not terrible. If you can, before your water breaks, get into the jacuzzi tub. That’s what broke my water.

Answer

Started pitocin at 8 am and she was born at 2:06 PM. It went smooth, I went into labor in my own with my first and I wouldn’t say being induced was worse than going on my own.

Answer

I had a pleasant experience. Went in at 5:30 am to be induced. Started the pitocin around 7:00. I was at a 3 when I arrived at the hospital for induction. 40 Weeks exactly. By around 3-4 I was at a 5/6 and contractions were getting pretty rough. I opted for the epidural at that time. After the epidural I was able to relax and within 45 mins-hour I was at an 8. By 6:00 I was at a 10. By 6:30 my little man arrived. Maybe 20-30 minutes of pushing but man it flew by! Felt like 5 mins! The one thing I WISH I would have known to do was ask for the epidural much sooner. I was very stressed out and irritable before I got it and I was able to actually relax and enjoy my experience once I got it. This time around I will probably get it way sooner so I can enjoy my time and be a little more excited instead of frustrated due to contractions being so strong.

Answer

I don’t have good stories but my first induction i was closed and thick and took 33hrs my second I was a fingertip and 30% effaced and 22hrs my third I was a fingertip and thick and after 20hrs they started pitocin and baby was in distress did emergency c section come to find out he was pinned feet over head in my canal I wasn’t really shocked as all of my ultrasounds u could see him kicking his forehead I am being induced tomo night at 38wks and since the c section was only 15 months ago I can’t have the cervadil pills to soften my cervix but I can have the foley bulb which I prefer anyways it gets u thinned all the way and gets you to 4cm within the 12hrs but the cervadil only thins u and usually needs two doses so that’s 24hrs right they just to thin u out so if u are dilated at least to 1cm i would suggest the foley bulb it hurts just a little to get it in but once it’s in it’s like it’s not even there but remember everyone is different 
My biggest thing is listen to all your options decide what you feel is best for you and breathe and listen to your body get the epidural before your pain is unbearable bcz I waited to long with my first and the epidural didn’t work bcz I couldn’t sit still and it never made it where it needed to be and the second and third time it worked perfect bcz I could sit still and could answer the dr on where I felt the pressure   
Good luck
