Induction at 39 weeks?

Bree

Just found out my husband gets sent out for training a week before my due date 😭 My midwife said she wouldn't induce for non medical reasons until 39 weeks and I go in for my 38 week appointment this Friday. Should I ask about a possible early induction so DH can be there for the birth of our first child? I am only 1 1/2 cm dilated and 50% effaced
