I was just induced with my second last week. They started pitocin and broke my water at 9 am. Got the epidural at 11:30. Had her at 4:10 pm. It was just a lot of waiting but totally worth it!!

I been induced b4. it's diff with each pregnancy my first one I got induced at 38 weeks coz of high bp. It took a while I went in at 8pm the baby came out next day around 4pm the contractions hurt pretty bad so uncomfortable even u change position, & the wait is too long u might get bored bring something to entertain u or if u can take a nap :D
when my doc came in he got upset with nurses coz they didn't break my water yet, they waited too long:/  but then again I heard diff story from other moms so hope this helps:)) congrats & you do great!:))
