Are there any others being induced this week? I am 41 weeks and have been measuring very large my whole pregnancy. My midwife offered an induction at the end of the week and I opted for it. I was hoping to go into labor naturally and I guess there is a chance I might! But by the looks of it , he is very comfy in my belly. So Thursday night it is, where I will go in for them to prep my cervix and begin the induction. Very nervous since this is my first! Wish me luck!

I just lost my mucus plug today which is good, but other than that haven't had any regular contractions. Lots of bh contractions and menstrual type cramping all over. I have an appt tomorrow to check for dialation. Last time I was only 1 cm. Uggh. So I think I need some help getting labor started.

I was induced with my first after my water broke and I was not having any productive contractions on my own. Luckily I dilated relatively fast...ds was born 6 hours from the time they started the pitocin. Having a second child naturally, I can say that my contractions were not really stronger being induced, but they did seem to come faster. I also think there was about the same amount of pain with both natural and induced labor. Like I said with ds (induced) I was in labor 6 hours 7lbs 15 oz and with dd (natural) I was in labor 8 hours 9 lbs 13 oz. Wishing smooth sailing for all of you.
