Goodness Cheery that's a bit of news! Hopefully the shock has died down a bit by now and you will be Miss Zen by tomorrow. Please take the advice given by the ladies so far - just try and go with it - if your baby is so big he might well be nearly ready to pop out anyway so the induction should go swimmingly! (Although not actually swimmingly, sadly 
).
I too would far prefer a midwife led birth, but if they tell me at my 41 week appointment on Wed that induction is better for me and baby, then that's certainly a route I will willingly take.
Only update here is that I think the spotting that started on Saturday was actually my mucous plug starting to go, as its continued to appear but in steadily more mucousy fashion... No other symptoms really. If anything, my pelvic pain is lessening since last week, although baby still seems low down and leaning to the right a lot as before. Perhaps I've finally managed to rest more without realising it. Although now that Wimbledon is over, there is definitely less incentive to stay on sofa instead of tidying and clearing the flat.
What else? I'm so impressed at those if you who've managed to follow the postnatal thread as well as this one - I'm finding it hard enough to manage this!! Will check in soon. Am having real trouble imagininf that soon I will be 'postnatal'. It all seems a bit surreal still, notwithstanding the mucous plug factor....
Bird, that is amazing about your waters breaking! I know they say it can happen, but obviously not v often by your midwife's reaction. Hopefully you are happily giving birth to bubs right now, or even snuggling happily in recovery. And Blubell too! Can't wait for news of you both 
As for food bags, mine sounds quite similar - I've got a mix of health bars too - Nakd, Eat Natural, and some Quinoa ones I came across in H&B - maybe the same ones Elliz mentioned... Also some Bounty and Snickers, some dried figs and some decaf and herbal tea bags. Waiting in the fridge is some coconut water, and elderflower cordial, and when the time comes will add clementines and grapes and some sandwiches.
I am only starting to wind down now really. Went for last Pilates class on Wed and last swim today. If still ok tomorrow will go to yoga class as it will help with relaxation/stretching/breathing when I need it most! Have finally stopped making social plans, though I may venture out to NCT coffee tomorrow too. We'll see.
Julfin, I keep meaning to write about DH's anxiety, in case it makes you feel better! He hasn't been like this consistently through the pregnancy, and he really does want this baby and has been as excited as me. But he has been up and down a lot in general and is certainly letting his worries get the better of him again as the birth approaches, and it's really not helping me! I need him to be calm and relaxed and organised just now, not distracted and exhausted with his mind racing, so I have to tell him everything 3 times over. I find myself constantly reassuring him instead of the other way round. 
Pulpi and Kaytee, I can't believe people have been that rude and horrible to you. I've been quite lucky really. Until that stranger in Asda yesterday put her hand on my belly and said 'boy?'. 
Anna, am thinking of you, and your lovely mum, whatever the day may bring. Love the image you described of her lying there with her hand on your bump. Hope you get your spa day - you certainly need and deserve it.
Finally - I too have been craving ice cream! tried to buy the Haagen Daz salted caramel yesterday after your recommendations, I even found it in Asda. So pleased initially, but then I noticed that the freezer section it was in was all frosted up as though something was wrong with the thermostat, or it had defrosted and re-chilled or something. So I was too scared to buy it. Maybe next time I'll get lucky...
Allthegood, think it was you who posted the funny image about people constantly asking if baby's arrived? I feel your frustration.
WE'LL TELL YOU WHEN THE BABY ARRIVES, PEOPLE!
Right, this is getting long. Better post. Sorry to everyone I've missed out. And good luck to all!
