39 weeks and opting to induce at 39 + 5

Mixed feelings as the gynae of my choice is pro-induction. Baby is on the heavier side, currently at 3.2kg. I was originally looking for vaginal delivery with minimal intervention as much as possible other than epidural. I was told to prepare 8am the day before and the process starts from there. Delivery should commence the same evening, possibly into the night. Anyone with induction experience? How was your process? #firsttimemum

I just delivered at 38wks through induction. 1st med inserted but cervix still not open, the next day 10.30am 2nd pill inserted. Intensed contractions started at 5pm doc check cervix already 3cm open. Pushed to delivery suite got my epidural and delivered at 11.34pm. I was only 1cm dilated when i got induced.
