    EPO when dilating?

    Hiya,
    This seems a silly thing to ask, but just wondering how long you should use EPO for? I had a s&s done today and was found to be 2.5cm dilated (hurrah!) but was wondering whether to keep using the EPO.....I assume it's safe to use as long as my waters haven't broken but just thought I'd check.

    As far as I know it's safe. I was 3cm in my later stages of pregnancy and was still using it. YAY for the EPO, hopefully bub get's a move on for you soon.

    BTW, yep, you are right, don't use it once your waters have broken.

    Yes you can still use EPO.
    It sounds like things are about to happen for you.
