Ah thanks for the reply babyL! I haven't a clue of what the "norm" is at this stage - everywhere seems to be so different, although you're in Wexford and I'm in Kilkenny so I suppose they'd probably be similar enough, not like the maternity hospitals I reckon! I was wondering about being offered a sweep or what the story is with that and do hospitals do internals as standard at this stage, I'm just wondering what I can expect I suppose! I hope they don't mention anything about induction yet anyway, but I guess it varies from place to place. A girl I know went to Holles St and she was brought in for an induction at 40+2 even though her pregnancy was going totally normal. I'd really like to go myself if possible so hope they hold off on mentioning inductions until I don't have any other options!
