With my first pregnancy i was induced because my water level was low, so it ***** because of the contractions but obviously thats normal, but my water broke by itself and in 2 hrs i had my daughter but of course i had the epidural i couldnt stand the pain no more after having contractions for almost 22 hrs lol but at the end is worth it, do whats best for your baby if theres health concerns

Being induced is so common now . I would stress about it. If you get induced then you just get induced . Nothing to it. I know so many people who have had to get induced and only one resulted in a c section and that was because he got stuck . the babies were all healthy .
