I'll try this question again

Foley bulb.  Any one get One put in the day before being induced?  Did it hurt?  Did you dialate over night?  Did it fall out before being induced??? Were you dialated at all before it got put in?  Were you effaced?  Did it help you efface if you weren't already?

So sorry I forgot to come back to this.  I got mine in the afternoon, after water broke I got an epidural and napped.  I'd say it was probably about 7ish hours later baby was born.  It was a great help in getting my cervix to dilate and definitely was worth the discomfort.

I got mine the day I was being induced.  I was at a 1 when they put it in,  I was also hooked to pitocin.  It was an uncomfortable feeling but not terribly painful,  I threw up a few times because of the sensation.  It was in for a few hours and fell out when I was up going pee. They checked me after it fell out and I was a 4 with bulging waters.  About an hour later my water broke and real contractions started.
