My doctor do not induce until 39wks just in case your dates are off 2wks and the baby will not be preterm.

I think the earliest ive ever seen a baby survive is 21 weeks but pre term birth is a serious thing anything before 36 weeks baby can have LIFE LONG ISSUES even debilitating ones. U may be miserable but u gave up the rights to ur comfort when u decided to keep baby. Unless u have a condition that threatening u or babys life don't rush it.

Yea 36weeks is considered full term bcuz that's the beginning of ur 9th month. That's when I will get my cerclage out if my baby doesn't decide to appear earlier. 32 weeks the survival rate is about the same as a full term baby, but as mentioned that's with NICU care.

Your baby would survive at 32wks but it wouldn't be healthy for her. She would probably require some time in the NICU and would miss out on a lot of brain development that is still occurring in the last weeks of pregnancy. 37wks is the earliest drs will induce unless there is a serious medical reason to induce sooner. It's best for your baby to let come when it's ready.
