decisions, decisions

My due date is just in a couple days and my doctor gave me the option to either get induced on Tuesday or just wait until natural labor, but if by next Saturday I don't go into labor he's gonna induce me anyway bc it'll be my due date. . Ugh, I just really want the baby to be out.. But at the same time I don't know if I should just wait and stop being so impatient. .

I would just wait it out. I was induced with my first, pitocin can stop hour body from releasing the natural oxytocin that helps dilate which can cause you to have an extremely long labor which runs the risk of c-section. I was in full blown labor for 29 hrs
