Scheduling induction?

Question

When can you schedule an elective induction? Like how far in advance have you been able to and for what week? 37/38 weeks? What’s the best? And share your induction stories

Answer

Pretty sure they won’t induce you until you’re past your due date or have a medical reason to. What’s the rush?

Answer

I was told I can have it as early as 39 weeks

Answer

Mine would have scheduled it at my 40 week appointment to take place at earliest 41 weeks.

Answer

Getting mine at 39 weeks because fiancé is overseas and has to fly in to see the birth. normally my obgyn waits until due date or afterwards

Answer

Elective inductions begin at 39 weeks at the doctors discretion.

Answer

My first 2 kiddos I was induced at 39 weeks and scheduled it the week before i believe.

Answer

39 weeks

Answer

i was 35 weeks when i got scheduled to be induced at 39 weeks so a few weeks ahead!
this comes with a twist because i am diabetic so at my next and last growth scan (37 weeks) i will be finding out how big the baby is and if my drs agree with me trying vaginally then. the deciding factor will be baby’s weight and especially shoulders 😨
if baby is too big, induction is out of the window and i will be having a c section.

Answer

Being induced at 39 weeks, was scheduled at 37 week but is for medical reasons

Answer

A lot of doctors will not even schedule elective inductions because it is not the best thing for you or baby. Why rush? Your body knows what to do & if there’s no medical reason baby will come when he/she is ready. My doctor won’t even induce until 41 weeks unless necessary. But my first came a few days before her due date!
