    Hello
    You can take your capsules now, but they probably will induce labour. This is why it isn't advised to take them during pregnancy as they can bring on labour. As you're experiencing pre-labour signs and are 39 weeks it would be OK to take them at this point if you felt comfortable with it and realise it may kick things off!
    Good luck with the birth.

    Thanks for your opinions . I ended up taking the placenta pills yesterday around lunch time, and after another morning of miserable mood they seemed to kick in fairly quickly and have been feeling energetic and positive ever since (like magic! Or an out of this world amazing placebo effect, whatever you want to call it).

    Had another night of prelabour contractions last night that lasted for two to three hours and appeared to be increasing in intensity but then subsided again. And my mood was so good I didn't even care, and am currently feeling happy waiting for active labour to kick in.
