Postive induction stories ( 2nd induction )

I’m due to be induced on Thursday and looking for some positive induction stories to help calm my anxieties. I had an induction with my last baby which took 5 days before bubba arrived. Honestly think I’m slightly traumatised by the situation as the thought of going through it again is making me soo anxious, Has anyone had a quick induction and / or an induction 2nd time round that was more successful than their first ?

I had an induction on my 1st baby which lasted 5 days of pessarys and then the drip and epidural on the final night. And I’m also being induced for my 2nd baby in January. I’m so anxious that either it will go the same and despite the long time to labour i got my pain free birth or of if i will labour quick and not get chance to have another epidural and be in total pain throughout. The midwives have said usually 2nd babies arrive quicker and our body knows how to labour quicker. So fingers crossed only 48 hours at most for our 2nd babies.

My 1st induction was 36 hours. My second was 14 hours. The pessary worked straight away this time and no drip was needed xx

Mine was perfect! I went in 6pm on 27th Dec 2022 didn’t have the pessary in until 1am on 28th as had to have some monitoring first. Then pessary came out at 1am on 29th got a room on labour ward at 5pm waters broken at 6pm baby born by 10.17pm. Had no need for the hormone drip as once waters were broken everything moved pretty quickly. It was honestly perfect I’m due again in June and I’m desperate for another induction as I loved the experience. Hope that brings you some comfort xx

My induction was really quick and went well

@Keely I really Hope this is the case ❤️❤️ honestly the 5 days induction is a killer isn’t it ! Sounds relatively similar to my experience. I’m honestly so petrified this time , I keep crying 😂 the thought of leaving my 11 month old for even 1 Night let alone possibly 5 is literally breaking my heart xx
