Brianna, with DS I didnt have accupuncture til 41weeks, you definitely arent too late to start. You need to get an accupuncturist who knows about pg/labour prep though.

My midwife this time around told me they wouldnt think about induction before 42 weeks, as the risk is no greater at 42 than at 38 weeks.
Im happy to consent to monitoring if it gets to that stage (but Ive decided Im having a 1 day early, full moon bub this time lol)
