How successful is an induction for natural birth?

Is it likely that once your induced you'll end up tearing or needing a c-section? I don't plan on inducing but I'm only 29 wks so idk how that will go yet.

I was induced with my daughter this past Saturday into sunday. (22-23) I only needed 2 of the cervadex and I went into labor on my own. I did tear but not very bad at all, plus my daughter was 8lbs 8oz, and the contractions were strong but I think they would have been stronger if I would have gotten the pitocin. I also only pushed for 45 mins before she was out. I did get the epidural though.

No., i was induced with my son last year and i had no tearing. I was in labor 19 hours 33 minutes! But he was my first. It doesnt mean you will end up having a c section mines went fine!!
