My old boss (a man by the way) suggested telling your doctor your period started a bit later than it did so as to give your baby a slightly (lets say couple of days) later due date. My first baby did come 10 days late and just in time before being induced... I can see his logic but I wonder if this is a bad thing to do - afterall the baby's health and ones own is tantamount and if they aren't coming and and should be it's best everyone knows surely?? Interesting to know if anyone else has done this. I'm thinking it's a bit dodgy but then being induced doesn't sound like a bundle of laughs...
