    Just thought I would update. DH and I went into hossy last Friday for our booked induction. After being there for 3 hours the Dr came in and said they were too busy to induce me so we got sent home We were rebooked for today. Yesterday at 3pm I got a call from the same Dr and he cancelled todays induction and rebooked it for Tuesday (42 weeks preg). He then called back and said that Tuesday didnt suit either so have booked it for tomorrow....

    I had another S&S Wednesday just gone and today woke up with a blood stained show!! YAY!! Have been getting it all day and irregular stronger BH's. I could still beat this induction..... I have 10 hours to go......

    The Hospital has really frustrated me, I wish they could just get organised. What if I go into labour naturally - are they going to tell me they are too busy and send me away???

    Oh i'm so excited for you! Sounds like you may just go in naturally after all!! Once i started with BH, when i had DD, I just hit the exercise and physical activity as hard as i could.. got things into gear for me and 12 hrs after BH, I went into full on labour (from nothing, to full on!)... 3 hrs later i met my girl...

    Who knows.. it could happen to you!

    Either way.. best of luck! not long to go now!

    I'm sorry you are having such a rough time with the hospital - what a time to be stuffing around with you.

    Shake your booty sister - that'll get things off and rolling!!!! Sounds stupid, but worked for me!

    I have been thinking about you

    What would happen if you just didnt show up for your induction? hmmmm. They cant force you to have it if you wanted to give your body another day. They have stuffed you around enough.

    I re-booked mine and told them that it didnt suit me to have it at 10days overdue (as much as I wanted to meet bub, I didnt want an induction) and my baby girl came all by herself at 41wks6days).

    If you really arent happy about being induced, tell them you want to re-book. Is it a private ob you're seeing or a doctor through the public system?

    Thinking of you and wishing you strong labour vibes!!!

    Wishing you all the best for today Ubba, whether you go in to labour by yourself or they do the induction. You'll be holding your baby today Surely the hossie can't stuff you around any more than they already have.

    Well we have been in hossy since 7am. There was an emergency when we got here so it was 10 am by the time we got into our room. I have had the gel as my cervix was still posterior and long but I am getting contractions and have dialated to 4 cm!! The Dr wants to break my waters in the morning which suits me fine as it gives me a chance to work on things tonight. DH thought it would be a good idea to bring the laptop in with us - happy he did. Probably wont update again today, these contractions are getting really bitey!
    Thanks everyone xxx
