Labor is longer when you get induced. I was induced at 40 weeks 1 2 days. I wasn't dilated at all. I went in on a Monday night, they put something on my cervix to soften it, it stayed there over night. They took it out the next morning and I started the pitocin around 9am. I didn't start pushing till after 10pm and my son was born at 12:44am. So from the time they started the pitocin to when my son was born I was in labor for almost 14hours.

@sharaiaa27, it was pretty bad towards the end and wasn't progressing me which made it worse. I think if I was progressing it would've been more bearable lol. But I was having contractions for nothing

Dang that's crazy!! Is it true the pain was really bad?

2:23pm so total from when I got hooked up to when he was born was like 30 hrs

I was induced at 41w 3 days and they hooked me up with a cooks catheter at 8am, started pitocin 8pm, removed cooks catheter at 10pm and I was only 4cm. My water broke on its own around 5am and was only dilated to 5cm. They checked me again at noon and was still at 5cm. He was born 2:23 by c section the day after I was induced
