Anyone ever been induced early bc of baby's weight?

Question

Has anyone in here ever been induced early because of their baby being bigger? I'm gonna be really upset if I can't deliver naturally because of his size

Answer

Doctors are often wrong about baby's weight.. sometimes by as much as 2.5 lbs.
They will tell u "he/she MUST come out, soo big, weigh too much. . It's "best"to be induced early"
Unless baby's heartbeat is in distress, or u are in distress, there's no need for inducing early, in the name of a "big baby "
90% of women that are being told they will be having a "big" baby, it ends up they were wrong and the baby is on point and on time.  7-8 lbs..another two weeks and it would have been 8.5 lbs- average weight for newborns.

My son was projected to be 9lbs 13oz, but luckily my water broke on my due date so I didn't have to be induced. He ended up being 9lbs 1oz but I had to get a c section. It was still special ❤️

Answer

There is no need to be induced based on size. Your body won't let a baby grow that is too big for your body to handle.
