What does inducing mean?

FH's boss's wife is getting induced today. Just curious as both of us are not sure of what happens.

They are probably going to put cervadil (sp?) on her cervix to soften it and hopefully put her into labor if not they are going to give her Pitocin which will put her in labor and from what I've heard hard constant labor. GOOD LUCK to them.

I had the Pitocin through an IV, luckilly I was able toget an epidurl after - so the pain was minimal, till it wore off
