Im 25wks 5days now and I plan on using the capsules from 34 weeks also to soften cervix as my last baby was 2 weeks late and I had no choice but to be induced which I hated.  Im glad ive found out about it this preg (from here) as wish I had known last baby :)

You can poke a tiny hole at the top.of it and insert it as far as you can close to your cervix.. you can try it with a tampon container just put the pill on top and you.know the rest lol
