I think most of them have been covered....
My questions were -
- how far post-dates will they allow me to go
- what happens then
- can I go to 42 weeks with monitoring
- at what stage of labour do I need to come in to hospital
- I understood I would need more monitoring but I wanted to know could it be intermittent rather than constant - I wanted to use water for pain relief, shower etc
- what time constraints would be placed on my labour

more importantly, I wanted to know WHY for all of the above. For example WHY did I need to come in as soon as I was in labour etc. The Drs were very good, discussed everything with me & said basically - 'we'll have our ideas of your labour, and you'll have your idea of the labour you want, the idea is we compromise'. I was ok with that.

Good luck!
