Induction

People who have been induced in their first pregnancies, how long did it take from starting the process to going into labour? Was the experience as horrific as all the social media posts i see online?

Im supposed to be induced at 38 weeks and absolutely shitting bricks that its going to be a difficult process because my body just wont be ready.

Advice please !!

I have an elective c section booked for 10th September, I had one in December 2023 too but I don’t remember being this nervous for my first one at all
🫣 feel like I’m really catastrophizing it and it’s not helping!
Please can anyone share there positive elective stories with me/ any tips they have to help make the theatre experience better and to stay calm in the theatre?
Thank you

Inductions and sweeps

So I’m 38 + 1 weeks and they have said they will be inducing me on my due date if my sweeps aren’t successful.
I went for one yesterday, my midwife said no chance of a sweep as my bodies not ready after checking and said we can try next week.

I’m a tad nervous they are going to have to induce me, in case it just makes birthing 10x worse. Has anyone had any issues when being induced?
