I'm sure you can for medical reasons and for the babys safety. But if your babys just fine then I'm sure your dr will probably want he/she to stay inside until their ready. Your womb provides amazing nutrients and so many good things to your baby and its usually best for them to stay as long as they need to gain all their last bits of strength and let them take advantage of all that good stuff before they're exposed to the world where it all depends on them.

They probably won't induce unless they feel the need too medically
