basically at the start when asked what my last period was i gave the last day june 9th instead of the first day the 4th, I told the consultant my mistake and she was as thick with me and said she would change it but never did so on the scans the woman said i was measuring 5 days ahead which I knew as I had realised my mistake explained to her what happened and she said consultant never changed it so she wasn't changing it, she left it as march 16th instead real date march 11th. so today I was in to get dates checked by scan which midwife organised because she said I was def measuring to my dates (march 11th) low and behold it was original scan woman who said I was wrong that my dates were wrong and that it didn't matter what date I gave that consultant was right! she was also rude to my bf so I laid there let her scan and I just left then was in tears in the bathroom after! I know myself my due date is 11th but they are just ignoring me except my midwife who agrees with me 0

Sorry just jumping in here, they have been incredibly rude and professionally poor towards you. You need to insist that the date is changed, it will affect how long over they may let you go if you are overdue and this has big implications.
I would call tomorrow and insist on another scan and/or appointment with your consultant. Don't be afraid to come across strongly towards them, you need to fight for this.0 -

Got twinges for about an hour and a half last night, all quiet at the moment though.
(There might be some truth to the 'shenanigans between the sheets make things happen' thing!)
Hanky panky is a fine mix of prostaglandin and oxytocin!
I stomped around IKEA on Saturday and was getting some nice pains for the rest of the day. Not much since!
My 18 month old is poorly so I was up cleaning up puke at 4 am.

I am back at the Midwife's Clinic on Fri, I will be 38 weeks. Is she likely to offer me a sweep at that stage or do they wait until 40 weeks?
You could always ask.
On my first my BP was v high at 37 + 5 and I had OB appointment on a thurs. He booked me for induction that Sunday but did a sweep that day to try to start my labour naturally. So in my case it was to try to avoid my scheduled induction that was medically necessary.
No harm in asking though and see what they say!

Thanks sittingpretty. I will ask anyway. I really want to try natural means of bringing on labour. I really don't want to have to be induced for post-dates0 -
