I am getting induced in 7days time at 38+ 4 as baby is measureing in the 97th centile. I was just wondering what to do the day before and if any one has any ideas. I was thinking have a pamper day do hair tan brows and face mask. Then cinema and meal with my partner as a final date night. Anyone else have any other ideas xx

We went to the cinema and out for dinner and it was lovely! And we didn't do that again for quite some time!

That’s what we are thinking and to take my mind off from being induced as I am terrified xxx

I think we just mooched in the house and enjoyed each other and the serenity.

Take your own pillow, magazines and a well charged kindle and tablet. In my experience, inductions are frankly more boring than anything else!

Just remember no nail polish or fake nails if your pamper day includes a mani/pedi. If you have a c-section they will need to see your nail beds, it’s apparently something to do with oxygen flow. Your day sounds fab though, hope you manage to relax and enjoy it Grin

I was induced for similar reasons but to be honest this time last year it was so hot and I was so uncomfortable I don't think we did much at all

I bought a dishwasher... which sounds boring but it was he best thing I could have done! Grin

Whatever you do, make sure you enjoy a cup of tea because you won't be getting to finish very many of them from now on Grin

Enjoy motherhood OP! Good luck Brew
