second induction

j&lo82907

Did anyone have inductions with their first and second births? Did the second one go faster/easier than the first?

I was induced with DS1, 39 weeks, 1cm 50 effaced, started with 12 hours of cervidil, then 16 hours of pitocin. It was a hellacious 28 hour llabor.

I'm scheduled to be induced Sunday at midnight. I'll be 39 weeks. I'm currently 1/2cm and 30 effaced hoping for more by Sunday

I'm just really hoping the second time goes quicker and easier.
