I was induced with my first at 40 weeks labour was 5hrs with pethadine and gas I was natural with my second labour was 1 hour no drugs

I didn't find induction any more painful than natural but being only and hoe the second time it did have that element of crazy fast that the induction had

Also I guess it depends on how ready your body is for labour about how it reacts to an induction

I had SPD with number two and a toddler to look after lol but I finished work early and had baby at 39weeks no long term damage I saw physio wore brace went to aqua physio I was better after I got baby out but still have a bit of pain if I lye on my side a certain way 5months later
