i was induced due to prom. they broke at 9:30pm and we trapsed up to the hosp etc only to be out to bed. If i'd know i would have tried to sleep more but i thought i was going to be on bedrest.

From when the drugs kicked in was pretty active. sitting on the ball walking etc. had a quick nap in the arvo. Only got into bed shortly before i was ready to push.

I was really tired from being awake all night. Which affected my mood and ability to be active. So i would go with resting until you are sure it's time and then being active. And i would be inclined to rest if it was night as you will get more attention and support at the hosp during the day so it's would be better to 'save' most of the labour till normal day hours. It sounds dumb but no on reeally checked on me from about 11pm until the ob arrived at 7am. I think they came in once.
