FTM- Induction question

Ok for those who have already delivered or previously was induced...how long did it take until you gave birth?
My doctor is starting me with Cervidil and once I get to 3cm they will do the pitocin. I just was curious how long I should expect to be there.

They started me on petocin at 8am I didn't start having any contractions until noon and my daughter was born at 6:15pm. But it is different gfor everyone. My contractions wede really bad though I went all natural with this baby if I have to be induced I will definitely be getting some kind of pain relief

Depends on ur body! I was induced with my first 3 kids with the pitocin. All 3 took about 4 hours. Only thing i didnt like about being induced was they left me on the pitocin for an hour after words and the contractions were worse then when i was in labor. They said they left me on it to help stop the bleeding from delivery. I hope u have a healthy baby!
