Good Induction stories?

I found out recently that I will more than likely need to be induced at 37 weeks due to health reasons during this pregnancy and i’m a FTM, I’ve never experienced a labor or birth and everything i keep seeing is scary about induction. Does anyone have any good stories about being induced around 37th weeks or just in general? Please 🫶

With my first baby I was induced at 36weeks due to high BP. everything went smoothly no issues. I only labored for 10 hours. We were allowed home the next day. He was perfectly healthy and strong. Only thing I hated was once they started the pitocin I wasn’t allowed water or food.

I was induced at 39 weeks and it was great! Everything was super relaxed, i got one round of cytotek and started contracting on my own. Then like 6 hours later i got my epidural. Then 9 hours later i was ready to push. Only had Pitocin when i couldn’t get him out bc he was a large baby but otherwise the whole experience was great and very controlled and very relaxed. I’m actually scheduled to get induced again at 39 weeks. If you have anxiety it’s nice to have that control and know what to expect step by step

I was induced with both of my girls and everything went great I had no complications or anything.

I felt induction was calm and relaxed being that we weren't rushed into hospital in mid labor. Had pitocin, balloon, water broken by midwife, and epidural. Baby boy was born healthy no issues the whole process. Induced at 38 weeks due to high BP and son had heart arethmia that resolved immediately after birth. Good luck!
