    I had to be induced with DS and they offered a S & S if my cervix was favourable but unfortunately it wasn't (this meant that my induction was a very long, painful process but that is a whole other story).

    EPO is the best suggestion I can think of to help things along. Also nipple stimulation but if you have diabetes, they have probably asked you to express everyday (if they haven't, look into it because it might be helpful to your baby when he was here). I found expressing helped things along too - both these things worked well in my last pregnancy - a little too well since I was booked for c/section.

    Good luck. I hope your little man makes his appearance before you need to be induced.
