Propess induction

I'm currently in hospital awaiting my first baby. I'm just under my due date (due on Monday) but because of a few things have been induced.

My midwife examined me yesterday and said I was 1-2cm dilated but today the hospital midwife said they could not break my waters. I had a propess put in at 12 and so far haven't had any real symptoms 😩 my dh has been sent home as visiting is only until 8 so I'm just sat here alone. Does anyone have any positive stories to tell me?

I'm worried as it's been in for 9 hours now that nothing has actually happened and it hasn't worked. Midwife said if it doesn't work we will repeat so potentially I'll be here 48 hours with nothing happening :-(

I'm scared to give birth but I think I psyched myself up for today and now I'm sat alone with no progress. Also there is a woman in the next bay who is in labour and keeps making very loud moans (almost screams) so that is not making me feel more confident.
