with ds i was 42.3 weeks (hossy let me go over) . I was booked in for induction on the tuesday morning 9am. I ended up having pains late in the arvo (though it was nothing but with in an hor and a half they were 10 times worse... from 1st pain to time they broke my water was 4 hours. 1/2 hour of puching and DS was out.

My Second. I was also post date... booked in for induction 10 days over. No dilation, bubs still high up.. they said i'd need probably 2-3 lots of gel. well within 10 mins of the 1st gel i was in pain. 2 hour 16 mins after the gel went in my baby girl was out.

They said next time i have to get to the hossy ASAP. as i only had 1 push and she was out. This was the most painful 2 hours 16 mins but i have no recollection of pushing it was so fast.

I think it just really depends. If your worried next time i would just ring the hosy before hand and see what they say. or go in and get checked... they tell you if your better to stay or go back home
