I was induced with DD and I hear the contractions are much more 'intense' with an induced labour, but by God, most of what you girls describe sounds like bliss!!
For me, it quite honestly felt like someone beating the back of my pelvis with a baseball bat while trying to s*** a brick the size of a 2L Coke bottle. I felt the pain all the way from just under my boobs, to halfway to my knees. There was no, 'Oh hey, I think that's a contraction!' with me, it was 'We're going to hook you up to the drip and break your waters' to '****JESUSCHRISTONABICYCLEKILLMEKILLMEKILLMEKILLME ITHUUUUURRRRRRTTTTSSSSSSSS!!!!' in the space of about three minutes.
And, because that sounds really wussy, I have a really high pain threshold.
It was horrible. I definitely want my next one to be a natural labour rather than induced, because the intensity was just horrific.
