I was induced at 42.5 weeks with DD1. By that point the liquor was dwindling (when they ruptured the membranes, nothing came out) and the placenta was very tatty, full of holes and grit. DD1 came out with quite a large head circumference (did quite a bit of damage too, she was distressed and it was a case of getting her out asap) and they said later something about her head wasn't as soft as a usual newborn because of how developed she was. She was quite long and skinny too. BUT I believe I'd had labour trying to start for 3 weeks by that stage, for some reason my body just didn't seem to crank up how it should.
