Induction questions

Tara

I am going to be 39 weeks Monday with my second baby and We chose to induce labor this time. I’m just curious to hear from some mamas who have been induced before. My few questions are:

- do they still allow u to get the epidural early on, or do they make u wait until contractions begin?

- do they break my water (if it hasn’t already broken) Or will they begin with Pitocin to try naturally? Is it a different medicine to get it started?

- how long did the labor/delivery take?

Thank u for taking time to answer these 🤗
