doctor wants to induce?!

Question

My doctor is going to talk to me next appointment about him inducing me, he doesnt have a reason to do it.. im uncomfortable but its the last two weeks of my pregnancy of course im going to be uncomfortable hes getting ready to come out.. I want to him to come when he's ready! But if the doctor does end up having a reason whats the difference between getting induced then naturally.. my gma said the contractions were worse than normal...

Answer

If he doesn't have a medical reason to do so, I'd push NOT to be induced until medically necessary

Answer

Do you trust your doctor? If so hear him out. But definitely ask questions. 
Make a list of them all and bring it wth you. 
Then ask for the reasons for induction and the risks associated in both sides. 
In the end it's def your decision.

Answer

The contractions come hard and painful at once. It's not like normal labor when they come little and then start getting stronger. They just come strong and one after another with no brake in between. I'm 38 weeks and I'm super uncomfortable with a tight stomach that doesn't want to go away but my doctor said she won't induce me until I pass 40 weeks so I'm hoping my little one comes on his own and soon 😊

Answer

The contractions are way worse. My Dr wanted to induce me to but I told him nope

Answer

Unless medically necessary, I wouldn't. Why induce? Baby will come when he/she is ready, not when it is convenient for the dr's schedule....

Answer

Can you refuse an induction ?

Answer

I had to be induced for medical reasons and it took two days in the hospital to have her. It was a terrible labor

Answer

My doctor is only allowing me to go to 41 wks because he's "big" but he's really not that big. I'm due on Tuesday and both my hubby and myself were big babies. (8.5lbs and close to 9.5lbs) he was only measuring at 7.5lbs almost two weeks ago at 38wks. He hasn't dropped yet either, a small amount since last visit cause he's not kicking my ribs anymore. I'm just really afraid that if I'm induced I'll end up having a c section. My hubby is more impatient then me and wants to have him the weekend before my 41wk. I've been getting acupuncture all week and hope when I go to my appointment she can do a sweep but my cervix is closed and high still, at least from the last time I was checked at 38wks. My baby just wants to stay right where he is. Lol I live in a big city and think my doctor just wants the convince of knowing when/what day I'll be having the baby vs him coming naturally.

Answer

Im not being induced until at least 42 weeks and even then my midwife said they cant force me. She did say they dont like people going towards 43 weeks because of the placenta so i wont go that far... i know when i got pregnant and they changed my due date to a week earlier from my scan and since that first scan ive measured behind the whole time so I personally think im a week behind my due date so im in no rush and I want baby to come on her own.
