And whilst you're here, feel free to answer any of the following...
What does one wear for induction - nightie ready for it all kicking off, or normal clothes for wandering around hospital in?
Anything else I should add to my hospital bag that I'm more likely to want with an induction?
If the prostoglandin stuff doesn't work, can I decide at that point to leave it, as I don't want my waters broken or the drip?
Would they be able to tell from a scan whether my placenta was still functioning just fine, whereby a few more days wouldn't hurt?
I'll be 40+5, and the induction is because I have gestational diabetes. It's standard practice to induce between 38 and 40 weeks for this, but I've been 'allowed' to go over because my control of it has been good.
