EPO questions

[AMAS86]

Curious and want to try if I make it to 38 weeks..
Questions are what does it exactly do? How do I do it? And where can I purchase it? I tried googling but for some reason my phone isn't liking google today. If you have any stories, also please post them Thank you!

I love EPO.
With my first pregnancy i went 3 weeks overdue and ended up being induced. I wasnt even 1cm when i went in. Blaaah.

With my 2nd i started taking epo at 35 or 36 weeks orablly. 2000 mg i think.
Then at 36 or 37 weeks i started inserting it vaginally. Two pills at night. And within that amount of time i had dilated 2cms every week until i went into labor at 38+3. Not only that labor was a breeze. I was 8cm by the time i got into the hospital and had him within a couple hours. I also only pushed 5 times i think and he was out. No stitches or anything needed.
