    i went 10 days over and was then induced.

    i asked this time if i could be left the full 2 weeks, and she said it is ultimiately up to you but we have to let you know the risks and there is evidence that a fair percentage of babies dont make it if left that long, even with monitoring. freaked me out!

    I went 11 days over but my dr said she would induce me when I reached 14 days.

    theres no reason you cant go to 14 days over!! if everything is ok they can monitor you, you'll probably go before the 14 days anyway!!
    i went 3 days over with DD2, i used accupunture to get things moving

    Brianna,

    I went 7 days over and used Acupuncture which i believed got things moving for me too. I had it on the Sat and went into labour on Sun night!

    i went 13 days overdue, was due to be induced at 14days. They said i could be induced at 10days overdue but i was worried about induction so i got them to put it as far back as i could as me and baby were fine and healthy

    I went 7 days over with #3. A few days before this, when I was a couple of days over, I was booked for induction on day 10. I didn't need it, thankfully.
