Induction Question?

Good morning ladies! Ok I am 37+3 weeks pregnant I am goin to be induced on Friday at 4 am. Ive been dilated too 2 cm's for about 3 weeks now. Does any1 kno since I'm already starting to dilate if the labor will go faster or that doesn't matter? I wasn't dilated wen I had my son and I was in labor for like 15 + hrs. I would like to hear any1s stories if they were induced bein 2 cm dilated!

Yes if your dialating and cervix is soft it goes faster. My first baby and induction 17 hrs and I was at 2 cm hard cervix. 2cd baby soft cervix and 3 cm was 9 hrs. Would have been 6 but there were complications due to another issue.
