I'm only 28 weeks pregnant at the moment so still a while to go, however I'm really scared of going overdue and the risks that come with it. I had a late miscarriage at 21 weeks last year so I'm already terrified about losing this baby, and I can't deal with the thought of going overdue and risking having a stillbirth. It would absolutely destroy me. I'm going to speak to my consultant about it when I'm back with her next month, do you think there would be any chance of them inducing me once I get to 40 weeks if there's no sign of anything happening? I've already mentioned the possibility of a planned C section to her and she talked me out of it because of the risk of blood loss (I had a major haemorrhage last year and was really poorly for a while)
