is anyone else not keen on induction?

I really dont want to be induced, just seems like most moms on here are really into it. I am hoping that my son comes naturally. I am due the 27th so fingers crossed. I will push as far as I can before induction. I am open to membrane sweeps, foley catheters and possibly the suppository induction methods but thats about it :/

I'm due Tuesday and had a membrane sweep today, I don't feel any different, no cramps or anything at my next appointment we will be planning an induction date due to the size of my baby girl, she is already 7lbs 14oz and I'm very small. I'm really hoping she just comes already but I have a feeling she isn't going to budge.

I was due yesterday buy I'm only dilated to 1cm and a 1/2 they scheduled to induce me today but I cancelled it hoping baby will come naturally before next week. If not I have to be induced.

Baby girl has until next Friday to come on her own. If she doesn't, I've elected to have another csection. With all the risks and extra pain with inductions, especially after having a csection last time, I've opted out

Same here. I'm due today and so far am only dilated to a 1. Doctor can't even do a sweep because I'm not dilated enough. He wants to induce at week 41 but I really hope she comes before then!

I had the choice to get induced Sunday. I said yes at first and then canceled it. Just going to wait and see if he comes on his own. I've heard terrible stories about it and I've heard some not so bad
