Inducing

I went to the doctor today and she told me I am 6 cm dilated and 100% effaced. Im going to the hospital tomorrow to get induced, my due date is Saturday. I'm not sure what to expect or how long I will take. Im so nervous and excited! Any advice? Has anyone been in this situation and how long did it take for you to deliver?

I went 2 weeks ago at 3 cm. Then last week at 5. Then today at 6 but no contractions.  That's why they let me go home. But since last week she wanted to induce me. I just wanted him to come when he was ready but im only 3 days from my due date im sure he'll be fine now. I wanted to cook him a little longer lol :-)
