    I have just been to my midwife who suggested piercing a hole in the tablet with a pin before inserting - have not tried myself yet but will soon - GL.

    Just curious - how much leakage happens with this and does the body absorb the whole lot by morning? Am i also correct in say the EPO just softens the cervix?

    yeh its meant to help soften the cervix. TBH i never had any leakage. i always instered right before bed and pushed them up as far as i could get them to

    MM - have you been doing this?? Just wondering if the outer shell of the EPO really does dissolve? I guess I have this fear I'll do it and then the Ob or someone will do an internal and I'll have some explaining to do......LOL.
