to try to make me feel better about being induced tomorrow tell me how it's likely I will get to meet my baby the same day...

I was induced at 42 weeks. Officially, my labour was something like 2 hrs 40mins. In reality, the pessary went in at 6pm Friday, by 9pm I was having serious contractions (like 5 mins apart, enough to make me swear) by 12am I was begging for pethidine and at 7am Saturday morning my son was born via Ventouse. So I guess it could have been longer if he hadn't been in distress. They only let me push for 40mins before taking me into theatre.

It can happen very quickly!

no with my induction with ds1 who was a 26 hr labour- ouch!- but with dd, it took a long while to start but then it was a 5 hr labour and born within the day as in within 24 hrs)

I didn't. 50 hours later I had a c section, and saw DD after that.

I was induced with my second at 41+4wks and he was in my arms 4.5hrs later. I was induced at 41wks with No3 and she took about 12hrs to put in an appearance, I think.
