I was just induced Sunday n just got my epidural a couple hours ago so I should b pushing soon. But I could have had him last night but my cervix was still thick and I wasn't dispute but everyone is different so that's not necessarily true

With my son I went in on tuesday night and got the balloon to dialate me. I had a few contractions that night but it was not bad. The next morning they broke my water and gave me pitocin at 8am. Contractions started at 9am epidural at 11ish and started pushing at 1220 in the afternoon and he was out at 1246 in the afternoon. Everyone is different but my expirence was not bad at all!!

I'm being induced in 10 days via pitocin. My doctor said from the start to when the babies are born shouldn't be any more than 24 hours.

I was never induced but my step-daughter was induced at 6am and had her son by 1pm that same day and that was her first baby. Also a friend of mine got induced early in the morning and she had her baby girl by early afternoon that same day. It is common with your first pregnancy to be in labor for upto 15 hours. That's why I was surprised that my step daughter had her baby soo soon. My first pregnancy I was in labor for 12 hours natural and only 6 hours my second with an epidural.  I'm definitly having an epidural this go round also :)

I was induced with both of my boys and I had them later the same day. If you are planning on getting the epideral, it will really help. I had my first son natural and it really hurt.
