moms who were induced, how was it?? ill be induced at 7pm next week and Im nervous about sleeping that evening.. I know…

it really wasn't I do have to say when they were trying to dilate me that was a bit rough but still bearable, they used a bulb to dilate me and pictocin as well but my body wasn't ready for them to come, I was 37 weeks 1 day (full term for twins) if I was further along I probably would have dilated much faster in the beginning but again still not bad, I'd do it the same way again if I had to lol

that doesnt sound bad at all! @twinmamma2015

yeah i agree, everyone is different about how they take to meds and what not, ill just have to see how it works out! @ashalay88

I was induced at 9pm and had him at 5:13pm the next day. I wasn't dilated or effaced at all when I checked in at 530pm either, I was even 9 days overdue!. They used cervidil (sp?) and around 2 am it fell out and I was at a 4, fully effaced. I labored until noon without anything, then added pitocin, hit 7cm around 330 they broke my water and I started pushing around 415. I tried to get an epidural, but both attempts left me with only numb legs! I took a benadryl the night of, but didn't sleep until morning! All in all, I had a pretty good experience!! As far as people saying its a long and painful process, regular labor without help is long and painful too. Anyway, good luck!

oh yeah epidural all the way!! I have nothin to prove, just tryin to be happy! but thats awesome, things went fast for you! @babyboy1202

I was induced at midnight and had my boys at 607pm and 614pm. it wasn't bad, I have nothing to compare it to but it was a pretty good experience

I was induced. Start pitocin at 7 p.m. And I had my boy next morning 8:11 am. It wasnt really bad but I did tired alot. I didnt feel alot cause I had an epidural. Its a life saver

yeah some people dont react well to the meds, we will have to see how it goes, anything for a healthy baby! @nique1990

yeah im not sure how long mine will take.. im 50% effaced and 3 1/2 cm dialated already but that doesnt mean things wont be slow! im gonna try my best to sleep that night but im afraid my nerves will get the best of me! @caitlynnrosee

I was induced. Went in on Thursday at 1cm, and had him Saturday afternoon. It's a long process. I had the pill, and then the pitocin as well. The pitocin is when it really starts getting intense and you get the strong contractions. When I started it I went from 5cm to 9cm in 30 mins. Just try to get as much rest as you can in the hospital. It's hard, but it's much needed 😌

Yeah I was induced it was my first child but I found nothing wrong with it at all, anything to protect my baby and I, I was all for! But I ended up having a c section I just would dilate lol
