Kelly, are they able to rupture your waters if your cervix is not already open? My OB said the likely hood of my cervix being open at 36 weeks is not very high.

What is EPO?

Please excuse my ignorance. Maybe I have misunderstood what he said.

No, your cervix needs to be open... so focus on the evening primrose oil, also traditional chinese medicine can help with cervical ripening and of course... if you have no signs of OC then refuse the induction!
