Hi, I'm lying awake at ridiculous o clock worrying about this so if anyone has any advice I would be very grateful. I am currently 12 days overdue with dc2 and my local hospital offers inductions between 12 and 14 days. Initially I had one booked for 12 days over, ie today, but when I saw my midwife this week, I decided to delay it until Sunday, when I will be 14 days over. My midwife assured me there was no difference in safety of the baby between 12 and 14 days and said that some hospitals wait til 14 days to book any inductions. My edd was moved forward by a week based on my 12 week scan so I have always felt I would go over on this pregnancy and as I had an easy, natural birth with dd,I felt that waiting those extra 2 days might increase the chance of a similar experience with dc2.
However, even though movements are good (baby is having a good old wriggle as i type) and all my check ups have revealed no problems with me or the baby, I am now panicking that I have put my baby at increased risk and I should have stuck with the induction at 12 days. Help!?!
