Induced 4 weeks early

Hi, my OB is planning in inducing me next week. I will be exactly 36 weeks on that day.
He is inducing me due to hypertension.
I'm nervous for the baby to come 4 weeks early, has anyone experienced this? How was your baby?

My sister was induced at 37 weeks due to protien in her urine...but delivery was smooth (well as can be lol) and baby was just fine! She was only 5 lbs but since she was well proportioned she was fine...my sister did have to stay in the hospital a couple extra days until they were sure her blood pressure was fine

My daughter came 23 days early due to pre eclampsia. She was in the nicu and icn for 9 days total. Her only issue was keeping her o2 sats up. Other than that she was totally healthy. Shell be 3 in september and you wouldnt even notice she came early unless you knew about it
