I'm 40 weeks today (official due date is tomorrow) and have been worried about induction, I've heard unpleasant things about it and I just wanted to hear peoples experiences both good and bad. The main reason I'm worried is that so many inductions end in emergency c sections (I've heard in some hospitals 1 in 2 inductions end in c sections) after a long, difficult labours which to me seems like the worst of both worlds. I have an appointment booked with a consultant next week to discuss having a planned c-section if things go on too long. Personally I'd rather let nature take its course but I know Drs don't like you to go over 2 weeks these days.
