That's crazy.

She wasn't even pretending that it was a better option for bub.. I don't know if that makes it better or worse!

I am also in the public system, have already asked one Ob if we can go a bit later than 41+10 as I am hoping to VBAC & I really don't want induction... she has agreed to 41+13 (so far ) with monitoring, maybe a scan etc. So I don't care now if anyone else says different, that's what I want! at the least.

I think the least they can do for you both is to offer a check to see how bub is going instead of just assuming that induction is necessary.

Be strong....good luck....Here's hoping that it won't even be an issue
