Ren, I went 11 days over with my DD. Was booked for an induction at 40w+10d, but because of the way they handled it (my OB, or mainly his secretary ), I panicked and didn't go. I had acupuncture in those last few days in the hope I could prepare my body for labour, expecting that I would have to be induced, but at least if my body was ready I could avoid a c-section. I went into labour during the small hours of the day after I was supposed to be induced. Once I got to hospital, I had ARM and synto drip because ctx had slowed/stopped. Had a normal delivery with just gas, no tears or stitches. I'd recommend acupuncture. If you're in Sydney PM me and I will send you the details of my acupuncturist. She was very good. I was booked for 3 sessions and went into labour after the 2nd.
