just have to refresh my memory as it happened 2 years ago. 
With my case there were 2 steps with induction (JMs, please correct me if anything below is not accurate or missing as i do not want to misleading Bluesummer). 
 
Day one (if it is scheduled induction), they will do a internal check to see whether you are dilated. If you are 1 or 2 cm already, they might not have to do anything, just ask you go home and come back the next day or when you start regular contractions. If you are not dilated at all (like me), they will put some gel into you virginal to soft your cervix can speed up the process for you. 6 hours after the first dose gel, they will check you again to determine whether to apply the second dose. All these all depends on your progress. I got my first dose gel around 12pm on day one, and around 7pm they checked me and decide no need to apply the second one. I was admitted that night, had a normal hospital meal. And i was check again about 10pm, and they applied the second dose of gel at around 2am day two. So virtually, i did not have much sleep at all! (big mistake) 
 
Rule one: Have a good night sleep! Eat well, rest well. 
 
On day 2, i had my breakfast then at 7am, the drip started. No more food, this is to prevent vomiting as a result of drugs. You can drink water, and maybe clear soup. I went on from then until midnight to have my daughter, very very exhausted and starving. I had some food in my baby, but i just follow the order from nurse and did not eat it. I will eat if i feel it this time. Starvation and loosing all your energy is far more worse than vomiting, i guess. 
 
So, all the pain will ease and be forgotten (very true), And compare the sleepless night later on, these pain are really nothing. Your long battle just started. Breastfeeding, baby settling, crying, sickness, and the list goes on and on..... 
 
It is bitter start of a whole new happy chapter in your life. |
