Induced Labour

Hi mummies, I am currently 36 weeks 5 days and will be inducing labour next week (at 37th week) as my gynae says baby is quite big and growing very fast..I heard inducing labour is very painful..anyone care to share your experience if you had induced labour before?

induced in july at 38 weeks. 24 hours not much pain and slow dilation (only 3cm after 24 hours) can walk, sleep and eat. gynae then burst water bag to try fasten the process. before burst water bag i asked for epidural. thanks to epidural i manage to took 2 hours nap before fully dilated. from burst water bag till full dilation took around 5 hours, not much pain except during the last hour when contraction kicks in.
