Scared to be induced 😩

Harmony • My name is Harmony and I have lived in South Carolina my whole life☀️ I’m a registered nurse💊💉 Rainbow baby due 04/2020 🌈

So I’m 37+1 today and had a growth scan and presentation check since baby was breech a few weeks ago. He is head down and everything looks great with baby - but they said I had a little extra amniotic fluid on board. Barely more than “normal” but it technically means a diagnosis of polyhydraminos which means they’ll see me twice a week for nonstress tests and plan to induce at 39 weeks. I’m sooooo anxious about the possibility of being induced. Obviously Pitocin is associated with increased complications but I feel like I just hear horror stories that end in csections due to inductions. Especially if everything continues looking great with baby, would I be crazy to refuse induction?
