What is induction like after waters broken but no contractions? Scared!

[Craftycakey15]

My waters broke last night and I am booked to go in to start induction tomorrow morning as I have had no contractions yet. I had no idea that this happens and am willing my body to start contractions tonight! All I have is the constant waters breaking, argh!

Has any one had this type of contraction before (after waters break)? Is it a quicker process than other circumstances , e.g. Being very overdue. I'm 41 weeks tomorrow, cervix soft and 1-2 cm dilated, baby 3/5 engaged ...and really scared of induction including the days in hospital before labour starts.

This happened with my second baby and they wanted to induce me also after 24 hours. I did some research though and told them that I would wait for 48 hours. I did have to go in to be monitored for a couple of hours. My contractions started naturally after 32 hours. Shortly after I ate a whole fresh pineapple.

Once in labour I was hooked up to IV antibiotics though for the duration of my labour.
