3 days from today I am going to be admitted to the hospital to prepare for induction. I can reschedule for a later time, but the doctor thinks its best to do it now since the baby is already 7 1/2 pounds and will probably be 8 pounds by the day of induction.

I just am curious to know what being induced is like. My mother was induced 20 years ago, and she says it was a very unpleasant experience. However my doctor assures me that now the process has changed and they administer the medicine in a way that mimics natural labor.

So I would just like people who have been induced or know people who have been induced recently to share stories with me. Because I am really starting to freak out, and just need to know how induction compares to natural childbirth.

Thanks! and sorry this is so long. (link)
Ive never had a baby, but my three sisters have all had kids, and all have been induced. They describe it as not painful but uncomfortable. But all three of them always have alot of Braxton Hicks (fales labor) before each child, for most of them, this gave them more, but thier friends did not have Braxton Hicks when they were induced. So it is diffrent for each person. I hope this helps.
