Induction stories?! Just curious what I should expect

Can I ask why you're being induced?

I was a 8 days over my due date when I was induced. I labored for 12 hours but only had 6 hours of hard labor, with the epidural things went pretty smoothly and quick.

@coraanne, preeclampsia

I was induced, I refused pitocin so they broke my water and I had my son exactly 7 hours later. No problems at all!

I was induced with my 5 yo. In my opinion, my labor was longer. My first labored for 4 hours, my second 6 hours, and my 3rd was 10 hours by way of induction. Go figure

Contraction brought on by Pitocin is no joke . I was going natural at first but I only dilated to 7cm but only 50 effaced so they broke my water that only made me 75 effaced and I still was natural but once they had to add pitocin I couldn't handle the contractions because natural contractions and pitocin contraction are two totally different things so I ended up getting an epidural

* I was 37wks and the day they tried to remove my cerclage (it didn't come out all the way) my cervix opened up to 4cm. I was in inactive labor for 24hrs
