Induction?

Kasey • RIP Ryley ❤️ 6/27/19 - 1/10/21 ❤️

My doctor said at my 37 week appt yesterday that she likes to deliver between 39-40 weeks so baby doesn't get bigger and harder to deliver. So she wants us to pick a date for me to be induced, assuming baby doesn't come on his own.

I've had a really easy pregnancy with no issues except anemia, also a FTM. Would it be a good idea to be induced? I'm already worried about a c-section because I'm so small (5'3", 105lbs pre-pregnancy). Plus I want to go as med-free as possible and I know inductions can cause labor to be more painful.

But I honesty don't know anything as this is my first pregnancy so would it be a good idea?
