    With DS i went over, 41 weeks. The doc told me that he was going to induce me the next day, but he gave me a stretch and sweep and i went into labour naturally at 4am the next morning. Did your OB do a stretch and sweep? Maybe you could ask for one.

    I was induced with my DD. but she was 6 weeks prem and i had to have my waters broken, :eek: boy that wasn't good. And the drip put in. (They only use gel if you are at your due date i think.) The best thing i did was have an epidural. On the machine my contractions were coming thick and fast but i didn't feel a thing. It was all over in 4 hours. best decision i ever made with the epi. (not everyone wants on of those though!)

    Anyways, best of luck and i hope your bundle comes sooner rather than later
