In hospital for labor induction

I was admitted to the hospital for a labor induction yesterday at 11:30 am it's now almost 2pm the next day....so onover 24 hrs. And i have still only dilated to 4cm. I currently on oxygen because my baby's heartbeat goes down during & after contractions. And yes a epidural was given. The only reason I'm able to do this. A little scared that my baby is even temporarily going with out oxygen. And the fact that i seem so far from delivery is driving me bonkers!! What's the longest you ladies been in labor?

Inductions can take time since they are doing it all for you and your body is not doing it naturally. Stay strong mama!
