Farm Girl I was just about to post the exact same post. My DS was 2.5 hours and my DD was about 40 mins (you can read her birth story if you click on “DD” in my signature). My head is swimming with possibilities:

What if I’m at the shops?
What if I’m driving? By myself, with the kids?
What if both kids are with me and I can’t find someone to watch them?
What if DH is, I dunno, on the toilet at work? ( OK so that’s a really stupid one but that’s where I’m at)

I went private with my DS and DD and I know my ob said he would really like me to have an ARM at about 39 weeks, if my cervix was favourable. But I just can’t stand the thought of any intervention. But am I being stupid? Am I putting myself and my baby at risk by leaving it to chance? Argh!!! I dunno???

Anyway, I'm sorry I haven't helped at all (I hope I haven't worried you more).
