Induction stories?

I was due to get induced, the day before I went for a big walk. I went in to get the balloon inserted, they checked and I was already 2-3cm dilated so I didn’t need the balloon. I got told to come back in the morning to have my waters broken, I had slight cramps after the cervix check but didn’t think anything of it. but I woke up at 3:50am the morning I was meant to get my waters broken with bad contractions. I got told the hospital at 5am via ambulance, my waters broke at the hospital and I was 9cm dilated by the time I got there. Baby boy was here at 5:27 am all on his own 💙❤️ so I technically never got induced, similar thing happen with my friend to!

I went to get induced at 39 weeks at 6pm, they checked me and said I was already 1-2cm dilated, gave me my first round of gel at around 7:30pm and an hour later it showed on the monitor I was having contractions (feel very lucky to have a high pain threshold). went to sleep woke up at around 3am and my waters broke, after that things felt a little uncomfortable and because this was the only time I’d felt anything I thought I still had hours and hours to go. Then at around 4:45 I called them over because every time I had a contraction I felt like I needed to poo and didn’t know if that’s normal. They said usually that means I’m ready to push but shut me down and said I wouldn’t be ready yet and that I was due some more gel at 5, they then checked me at 5am and baby’s head was right there. Called my partner and my mum to rush over to the hospital and within 15 minutes of them getting there baby girl was born. So I feel very fortunate that I have a positive induction story
