over due and worried

So I know pregnancy is supposed to last up to 42 weeks...im already 3 days late I have an appointment tomorrow and I hope they at least schedule me for induction soon if labor doesnt start naturally im worried something will happen to my baby, my whole family is worried because I was late too and my mom had to have an emergency c section because the cord was wrapped around my neck, so I think my doc said he waits 10 days till induce me but I dont want to wait that long im afraid something will happen and my family is not making it better!

Don't stress too much my son was 10 days late and was a super healthy 8.8 lb baby. The only problem is inducing can put added stress on the baby my son came out not breathing because of it. I hope I don't get induced again j want all natural

Well I'm sure stressing wont help, so calm down. You're baby is going to be fine. You'll know if something feels wrong. How about you try some stuff to jump start labor? You'll feel more in control.
