Hi there
Just thought I'd give you a positive experience - just in case you do need to be induced.
I have been induced with all three of my bubs , due to high blood pressure. With the first i was in labour for 8 hours, the second 7 hours and the third 2 hours. I used gas for all three and had no tearing with any. For me, being induced wasn't a bad experience. Having said that, i do wish i'd been able to feel what going into labour naturally was like.
Good luck
