Getting induced isnt bad. I was induced my 3 previous pregnancies also. The only advice I have is make sure the staff LISTENS to you. I have what they call a fast acting liver - at the dentist office they have to hit me hard with any numbing stuff - more than the usual amount - otherwise it will not work.

With my first I tried explaining this but they didnt listen. So even though they were loading me up with epidural I still felt EVERYTHING. The contractions almost made me break the bed lol. Afterward, the drugs hit me all at once and I was so weak I couldnt hold my lil one. However, the 2nd and 3rd time they listened and it was so much easier.

I was induced with my first and found it fine. No complaints at all. I don't have anything to compareto yet. I was induced at 8 am contraction started about 11 am and bub was out at 530 pm. I had morphine for the pain and don't recommend that purely for the fact that it got into bubs system and he didn't take his first breath till 4 mins. But I didn't have a problem being induced and won't hesitate to get it done this time.if need be. :)
