In a world where we rush around and try to fit too much in, a baby’s ‘due date’ has come to be seen by some people as a kind of appointment.

Statistically, only 5% of babies are born on their due date and many healthy babies are born before or after this.

I sometimes suggest that people plan to do something nice on their baby’s due date; there’s a really high chance that you’ll be free to do it!

But the important thing to remember is that, on the whole, our bodies and our babies’ bodies know what they’re doing.

As we start to make plans for the holiday weekend, we want to wish everyone a very happy Easter - or whatever you celebrate.

But at this time of year, we frequently hear from women who are being advised to agree to induction of labour because of an upcoming holiday.

So we wanted to offer this reminder that Easter, like all other festivals and holidays, isn't an indication for induction of labour.

Here's wishing everyone a peaceful weekend of making the decisions that are right for you, and not for your caregiver, or the hospital, or even the Easter bunny. (As much as we love her.)

If you'd like more information, feel free to have a surf around https://www.sarawickham.com or have a look at my books, which are all about helping you to make your own birth-related decisions.

And we have a whole Easter basket full of induction information at https://www.sarawickham.com/iol
