Epidural with induction?

Hi all

Looking for some advice. My waters broke early this morning (I’m 39 +4) but so far no contractions. They are going to induce me at 8.30am tomorrow if he hasn’t come naturally and I’m wondering whether to go straight to epidural given it’s going to be a drip. Or just try and stick it out with gas and air and maybe a bit of diamorphine??

it’s annoying as with my first birth my contractions started two hours after my waters broke and DS was born 6 hours after contractions started and was fine with just gas and air and a birthing pool. Was hoping for a repeat performance this time but not looking that way at the moment!
