I agree with rachyrou idk about how being induced is like I'm a first time mom but I wished I could wait till my lil girl is ready on her own instead I'm getting induced next Saturday if I can wait till then but only Cuz of pre eclampsia good luck on what ever u choose and congrats

Please don't get induced unless you have a medical reason. I was induced with gestational diabetes. And will not be induced this time. It is making the baby come before its ready. You haven't got long left honestly its so much better to go naturally and less painful. Being induced took three days in my case and made my contractions  rapid and in my case very painful... There was no build up of pain they were horrible as soon as they started. Like I said if tgeres no medical reason its so much better to go.naturally. I know you're impatient I was too but it will happen soon. All the best. Hope this helped

By 39 weeks you can legally be induce with no medical need, in most state I think.
But it all depend on what you and your doctor agree on.

You probablt could be. Its really between you and your doctor. My doc wont induce before 39weeks.
