Being induced on Saturday - third child

Hi, I'm being induced this weekend with my third baby due to static growth. I'll be 39 weeks.

Has anyone any experience of how long induction takes with subsequent babies? I went into labour naturally with previous two and my last birth was 6 hours from first contraction.

Thanks

Induction with my third at 42weeks took 2hrs from them breaking my waters.

I didn't need the pessary or drip.

Good luck

Keep active. You may be able to avoid drip if you keep upright. I did stairs (about 6 flights up and down) after waters were broken on my second and it didn't take long after that. Third time will be easy. Good luck!
