I'm 41 weeks and 5 days pregnant, I'm getting induced tomorrow morning, I have to call around 5am and probably be in there by 7am. I'm already 2 1/2 cm dilated and my cervix is very thin. They are starting me out on the gel first. How long do you think labor will be? How long do they give you to progress before a c-section? I've also heard if the inducing doesn't work they have sent people home before, will they send me home if I don't progress? Any other advice would be great!
I'm also going to get an epi. How many cm do you have to be dilated before they will let you have one? How long do they wait before they give you pain meds if you want them?
