I'm going to be induced on Sunday night and I'm a ftm and a bit nervous. I will be 37+2 when I get induced and I always feel Beter about things when I hear other peoples experiences. How did it go? How long after being induced til you gave birth? Pain? What should I be expecting?

I was induced with my first born, I got the hospital at 7:30 and had my son at 7:15 at night.. the worst part was when I had my water broken, it was horrible horrible pain.. but the actual delivery was painless thanks to the epidural :) I wad numb while I was pushing.. It was great lol

I've had 4 children and last 3 all inductions. . I don't want to horrify you with more negative stories however,  I will give you some strong advice,  that I wish I took the first time,  if you have the oxytocin drip to intencify and speed up contractions please have an epidural first.   I speak from experience and usually they offer it and 90% of women have one in the end. . I've had bad experience s with oxytocin and my last labour,  just 11weeks ago,  I hsd to have the dreaded stuff again. . I wouldn't let midwives come near me with that stuff until an anaesthetist put epidural in.. good luck
