Thanks for your answer. I do understand that 37 weeks is considered full term.

I have been told i have a small baby on board and the doctors want to keep me overdue as long as possible (from what i understand) so i would assume this wouldnt be much of an option in my case do you think?

Do you know if it has much effect on speeding up labour if you have been having weeks of pre-labour symptoms?
