I was induced with my first because my water broke and I was not having contractions. My son was born 6 hours after they started the pitocin. They did not use the gel.

I had to be there at 7 am and I had my son in my arms by 6:57 pm, they didn't gie me the pitocin until 10:30 am though and get to a high enough dose until around 2 pm. With my second I had to have pitocin to help my labor pogress and I went in at 9 am and my second son was born at 6:56 pm, lol. I am curious to see what time my daughter will be born in about a week from now, also by induction. GL and congrats on your little one

I was induced with my second child, from the time they used the gel to the time she was born it was 4 hours, but it didnt seem that long, it went so fast.

I was induced around 4 p.m., and I didn't have my son until 3:30 the next morning, but he was transverse and ended up turning at the last minute. That tacked on probably 2-3 hours.

I was induced with my second child because I stopped having contractions after I was given some pain medicine. I went in to hard labor immediatly and gave birth 2 hours later, so mine went very fast after I was induced. I was in labor for 8 hours before they induced me though. I had pitocin. My sister had the the other one it's like a pill they insert into your cervix, and it took her 24 hours to have baby. So it all really depends on you and your body. If I had the choice though I would never be induced again unless ablsoutly necessary. For me the labor was more intense then my first baby.

I was induced at 7:00 am w/ pitocin, had my water broke around 9:30am - 10:00am and my son was born at 1: 21 p.m. so around 6 hours for me...a.nd I actually count from the time they broke my water because the pitocin drip really wasn't doing anything until they broke my water,..so really, more like around 3 hours.

I was induce with my first child at 6am with pitocin and around 2pm they broke my water and at 8:15 I had my little boy!! After your water breaks it is pretty intense but up until then it was okay and I could handle the contractions..Good Luck!!!!

with my inducement, I got there at six, got pitocin at 7, had my baby by nine. BUT I have really quick babies. Always have. And they're big. My first was born in an hour and a half natually after my water broke and she was ten pounds.

how did it go renee924? Must be good to have it over and done with, and to be able to hold your new baby. I cant wait for my turn: )

I was induced due to high blood pressure. I was 40 weeks + 4 days but showing no signs of labor. They had to give me cervidal to thin out my cervix at midnight. At about 2-3 am my water broke and had light contractions all night. At 8 am they checked and I was only 1-2 centimeters. At that point they added pitocin. I ended up having him at 7 pm so it was 17 hours. I think if you are progressing somewhat on your own it'll be a lot faster. I was just so happy not to be pregnant anymore and to see my beautiful baby boy.
