shocking sleep last night - or lack of it. up about 4 times between 9 and 2, then awake for two hours at least, snacking, reading, trying to get comfortable. still have the small headache that's been dogging me, don't feel at all up to the strain of labour.
q's for ob/gyn today (dh is coming along):
how's my cervix behaving (first internal check for months!)
what tests will they do after 41 weeks, and what action might different results indicate?
what can we do to get labour going without hospital induction?
what induction methods does he use, and what will it involve (eg going into hospital)
if he's away between 10-14 days overdue, is is a good idea to just wait if the baby is not distressed?
who's his locum in that time and what will he (there are 3, all male) think of my birth plan?

such a dilemma, between the dangers of induction and the dangers of not having my trained and trusted ob/gyn for the birth...
