    All I can say is just because you're strapped to machines doesn't mean you have to be still. Don't spend the entire time laying down, let gravity do its thing too. make it the job of the midwives to keep the monitors on you! - that's what I did
    Did for me when I had Amelia, but I was so meek (aside from the swearing and screaming ) that I didn't argue I wish I could go back and stick up for myself... My advice would be to do what I couldn't!

    I went into full labour at 41 weeks after just one dose of gel. If you are ready, it can put you into labour by itself. I would advise give each step a chance to work before progressing to the next one.
