How long do they make you wait to be induced?   I have an appointment tomorrow which will put me at 40w+3d and I'm not trying to wait til Friday cause then I'll be 41weeks

Definitely tell ur Dr to let u go atleast 2wks over, its ok. Or from the research I've read it says that 2wks of is pretty much normal.

It all depends on the Dr. With my first I was able to be induced at 39 weeks but with this pregnancy I have a new Dr and she said unless I have complications she won't induce until 40 weeks.

Although it is considered "normal". Who wants to wait 42 Weeks?! Oh no... I totally feel your pain. I was induced with my first daughter at 40 weeks.... You definitely should suggest that to your doctor tomorrow! I will keep you in my prayers mzmomoof5

With my first they let me go 10 past, and my second I went 7over... I think they messed up because both of my kids had inhaled their muconium. It was scary. My third I was induced a week early. We'll see what they do this time around.... good luck honey.
