I have mixed emotions about my labour..,

I didn't have twinge or a tweake or any pre labour pains, not even an BH!! At my last OB appointment *41+2* he still couldn't preform a SNS, my cervix was still extremely thick and high, so suggested we head to hospital the next morning so to induce labour. He inserted a cervadil (SP?) and we waited and waited and waited - 24 hours and nothing! Next morning he managed a SNS and in the process told us he thought he had nicked bub's head - he had and DS still has the scar on the back of his lil noggin to prove it - bub was ready to go but my cervix wasn't giving in without a fight HAHA 11am and they hooked me up to the synto drip and an hour later i had my first contraction.. they came so hard and fast it was unbearable i told the midwife i was in pain and she replied "oh hunny you've only just started you've got awhile to go yet" five minutes later i insisted that things were happening and i was most definately in pain and wanted some relief so she examined me discovered after an hour and a half i was already 7 cm dilated - by this stage i was loudly questioning every mother who had more than one child sanity "WHO THE F*** WOULD DO THIS MORE THAN ONCE" she kindly passed me the gas and another half hour later and it was time to push, four pushes and i had my beautiful baby boy all 9lb 10 of him! It wasn't a horrific labour but it wasn't entirely pleasent either - I truely believe there is something to be said for the natural progression of labour and will decline any offers of inducement in the future!
