1. How long after you were induced did you actually give birth? 18hrs... I was induced for PE and instead of the gel I had the 24hr tape inserted as my cervix wasn't ripe enough for the gel.
2. Once you had the gel on did you also have your waters broken or did they wait a bit? They were supposed to check dilation 24hrs later, but I started contracting 6 hours later and my waters broke by themselves in the bath during labour 3 hours before she was born
3. How bad is it really having waters broken? Can't comment, mine broke by themselves which I was grateful for!
It was a hard and fast pregnancy (apparently this can happen with inductions)... I was considered to be in established labour at 11pm and she was born at 3am. I just used gas for pain relief (although I begged them for everything else, including a c section lol)
Good Luck tomorrow!!! Sleep as much as you can tonight, you'll need your strength!
