Had an induction in 2014 with 4th bub at 39w. The OB broke my waters and I was out on pitocin drip. Went smoothly and had bub 5 hours later just with the gas and air and no interventions. Was more painful at first than going into labour naturally; the contractions a more painful more quickly. If I haven't gone by 39w thus time I'm booked for an induction on the 16th.
i was induced at 37 weeks. i had the gel put in and it was uncomfortable then the next morning they broke my waters and had an epidural. was in labour for 4 hours
For me it was really fast! The gels didn't hurt, it was uncomfortable when they put them in, it was the stretch and sweep that hurt 😳 it was really fast though after having the stretch and sweep.
