I've been induced once (currently third pregnancy, second one and on her own) but mine went pretty quick. I was 11 days overdue. Went in about 7pm for cervadil, pitocin started about 7am, water broken by dr around 8am or 9 and she was born at 1158am.

With my first it was 24.5 hrs and then 2 hours pushing and with my second 17 hours then 30 minutes pushing. My third was no pitocin(that stuff is the devil lol) all my midwife did was break my water and then let me walk around and labor and it was only 7 hours and 4 minutes pushing

The Dr.induced me at 38.5 weeks because he thought I had a narrow pelvis and didn't want to let the baby get too big. I honestly had a great experience with being induced but you can tell by reading posts on this app every experience is different!

I doubt remember how long it took but i remember how painful it was to be induced. I can't go through that again this time.

Depends on the hospital if they will let you walk around with pitocin or not. The pill is probably to soften your cervix. If you aren't dilating then I'm sure they will do pitocin. Will they not let you go over a little bit? As long as fluids are ok and baby is not in distress there is no reason you cannot go over 40 weeks. If you are a bit dilated I believe to a 2 or more they can break your water. I told my midwife this time no pitocin unless absolutely necessary. It makes your contractions much stronger than what your body does naturally.

I was 42 weeks when induced. Went in at 6 PM and was given the pill and strapped to a ton of monitors.  Spent the night on the delivery table (way uncomfortable) didn't sleep and had to call nurses every 20 minutes to unhook me to pee. Doc came in at 9:30 am and broke my water and started pitocin drip. Daughter was born at 10:24 PM. Pushed for 2 hours. I was not allowed to get up and walk around.
