FTM Getting Induced!!

Wednesday morning I go in to get induced. I am 3cm dilated and completely thinned. Everyone in my family keeps telling me that I will have to have a c section because I'm being induced, and I'm beyond nervous. I was just wondering what your experience was if you were induced and if there was any advice you could give me.

I Was In Duce At 41 Weeks And THE Only Reason Why WAS Because He Was Not Coming But I Had him vaginally and everything turned out just fine labor was smooth and easy. Only thing was an extra night stay in the hospital.  Good luck to you and congrats!!!!

Being induced just ups your chance of having to have a c section. I'm scheduled for an induction next week and I'm super nervous about that also

I was induced with my first baby due to preclampsia and I did end up having a c section because I failed to pass 8cm. But I think you'll be just fine !

I'm just so terrified that I'll end up having a c section because it is my worst fear.

I was induced. It was very smooth. A lot smoother than my natural labor. I had a vaginal delivery.

I'm 40 weeks and 4 days now. And they worry that if they wait much longer she will get to big.

Hi! I haven't been induced before but I did have a c-section. How many weeks are you now and why are they trying to induce if you are dilating on your own so well? I would start walking and sitting on an exercise ball. Also take warm baths with no soaps or anything. Just to relax you.
