Boyfriend is upset that I chose to get induced! Anyone else having this problem?

I'm 40+5 today! I'm about 2-3cm dilated which I have been that way for about one week now. I have not lost my mucus plug nor am I having any contractions. Had a doctors visit yesterday and the doctor explained it's not safe for the baby to be in the womb past 41weeks. My boyfriend on the other hand just want me to wait until our daughter is ready to come out. He's not understanding that my body need a little help to get things started. We left the doctors office undecided. Late yesterday I told him I'm calling my doctor tomorrow to tell him I'll be getting induced Saturday. He's really upset about my decision. What would you ladies have done?

Tell him to stick it where the sun don't shine- it's your body, not his. He doesn't have to be pregnant for roughly 10 months nor does he comprehend the discomforts, pains, and everything else that comes with growing a human life inside of you.

Exactly the same, your baby needs to come before his beliefs. If it's not safe for your baby to go natural then I think it's quite selfish of him to make you feel that way to be honest. You're doing what's right for your baby don't feel bad! Good luck
