If you can't push for 42 weeks (I went to 42 trying for a VBAC and they were happy as long as I had monitoring as was I) but then as PP's have said, stretch everything out as much as you can. Get 2 applications of gel if you can, I had one lot at 9pm then another in the morning. Then I had waters broken at midday and then synto at 2pm but I would have liked to have waited. Once you get the drip started, start as low and slow as possible and keep moving as much as you can. I was able to go in the bath and shower even though they technically dont like it in case you drag the drip machine in and electrocute yourself I promised I wouldn't.

Good luck hope you work out a plan and go into labour naturally! xoxox Best advice I had heard around the time I was waiting for DS was that nobody was ever pregnant forever so waiting is a really good option if you can xoxox
