I had a good experience! I was so scared and honestly my mind made it out to he way worse thanks it was. Went in at 4am, they gave me fluids to wake up the baby..
.started pitocin about 530am. Dr broke my water at about 830/9. My contractions were slow to progress so they gave me some other meds that worked immediately. I went from 3-10cm in less than an hour. Start pushing about 6pm and my baby girl was born vaginally at 649pm. I had 3rd degree tearing but I had an epidural so didn't feel it til meds wore off. I was relaxing the entire time pretty much. The worst part for me was recovering but at that point you have your beautiful baby so it's worth it!being  Induced really isn't bad, and I'd do it again with this one :-)
