I got induced this morning. They hooked me up to an IV, gave me this medication up my cooch to soften my cervix. Suppose to have it in for 12 hours but it came out early. It started giving me intense contractions. Eventually my water broke. Bout to start on pitocin which causes contractions? That’s what the nurse told me. But overall just speeds up the laboring process. Should have my baby tonight if not tmw morning

@danielle.saunders02 I'm not allowed to eat anything

Eat before you go in, because once they start you can’t have any food . Just water and ice chips . I was induced at 37 weeks and in labor for a day and half. The induction process itself can take up to three days . It wasn’t bad but prepare yourself , it all depends on your body and baby.

Painful to me...plz eat before u go in

I was induced and read online that it causes even worse contractions than regular labour, and that they are more consistent all ended up being true because I felt it myself and it literal hell but I am sure all contractions are whether induced or natural. It wasn't until the epidural that things got scary my daughters heartbeat went crazy, it was getting really high and then really really low even the doctors/nurses were worried. But literally after they induced me I had my daughter a few hours later but keep in mind I was already 4 cm dilated and that is probably why it happened so quickly.

@kirstin678 Thank you

Nope, not bad at all. Good luck!

@kirstin678 That doesn't sound bad at all hopefully mines is a breeze im just so ready to get her out of me

Induced twice. I got my epidural before labor began with both so I didn’t feel any pain. With my first labor lasted 15 hours but epidural wore off as soon as the baby started coming so I felt EVERYTHING. Second time I was only in labor for 3 hours and it was a breeze. Next pregnancy I’ll choose to do it exactly the same. Induction and epidural early.

@benababes Yeah mines is too im just need something to keep my mind occupied

@candynicole42, it didn’t hurt, just really uncomfortable lol. They have to put it on your cervix and I guess mine is really high up there.

@mrsgonzalez2018_2u yeah I know that cause I'm only 1 cm dilated so hopefully it helps out a little

No one can promise that babe, that depends on your body and that baby. But in return walk have sex and walk some more.

@mrsgonzalez2018_2u Thank you cause I need some encouragement right now im jist calm down and relax I just want this to be a breezy labor

Don't you don't wanna stress out the littles. I mean all inducti💜n is. Is medication and breaking of your water to help you start contracting. So your being induced to get labor started other then doing it on your own. I did with both my boys and my first was 4hrs my second was highrisk pregnancy so was way longer at, 28hrs. But its natural and you'll be surrounded by family and friends that live you and doctors that you trust at the time. Breath in and out and take it all one step at a time. Before they get started they usually ask if you have any questions girl be honest.

@trailer_trash_queen That's not bad at all
