Not dialated...how long does induction last?

[MamaBear0612]

Got my cervix checked this morning (ouch!) and not dialated, but being induced next Tuesday for medical reasons. Wondering how long I can expect induction to last, assuming I'm still not dialated when they begin the process. Has anybody been induced when their cervix wasn't ripe, and if so, how long did it take for the baby to come?

I was induced on a Monday night hard contractions started Tuesday afternoon delivered Wednesday morning. I hear if you get an epidural and potocin its faster then the pill..

I was induced with my first and had her in 6 hours and I was 1cm for 2 weeks

It sounds like for most people so far at least it was less than 24 hours...

I was induced with my first and used cervadel...I was not dilated and only 20% effaced, from 8pm-5am I had dilated to a 1 1/2 and was about 80% effaced...from 8am-130pm I was in labor...she was born at 1:39pm
