Because of 4 episodes of bleeding in the last few months, the hospital have said they don't want me to go past 38 weeks. I had always assumed I would be 2 weeks late (don't know why) and suddenly I have only 2 weeks to go, instead of my expected 6 weeks! I don't know much about induction, as I didn't bother listening to that bit of the antenatal class, thinking it wouldn't affect me. Top tips please! Thanks.

Be prepared for a good 3 days of IOL before going into labour, established labour could still be another 24hrs. Eat well, bring snacks. You can eat whilst having prostaglandin pessaries.
Stay active
