If you or the baby aren't in immediate danger they'll probably do it the day you're 37 weeks. And yea 7 hours, I went to the dr at 2pm (36+6)and he came in and first thing he said was we're having a baby tomorrow (37+0) be at the hospital by 9pm tonight to do paperwork and we'll start the meds at 2am. And going in late like that is to make sure you don't eat and for you to try and get some rest (I don't see how in a hospital bed and ppl in and out and nerves) so if they want you to go in are like that I would eat a sandwich or something small right before because my hospital out let me have ice chips once I got there.

Your welcome. I was induced at 37 weeks because my blood pressure was rising in minutes. I was nervous at first but I really liked knowing better but I only got a 7 hour notice that I had to go to the hospital lol. Just if there's someone that you don't want around right away don't tell them lol. My MIL showed up at midnight and they didn't start me on the meds until 2am and she wasn't born until almost 4pm, she was loud and woke me up so I had to deliver on like 2 hours of sleep which SUCKED.

If the baby's small it could cause more harm to stay in longer because they're not getting the nutrition they need to grow and need to be delivered to get the proper nutrition. And really it's crazy easy. I was induced with my first and it starts out slow and progresses as the time goes of course but you know it's coming so you can try to mentally prepare. I wanna be induced this time but I'm not having any health issues so I'm not ):

I think if the baby is small then they won't induce you(or they usally don't unless there's another problem) they will just let him/her stay in there longer
