Please no judgment

I asked my doctor about the option of induction at 38 weeks because I’m in so much pain with my hip not my pelvis and can barely move or breathe. My hip is popping out of place and locking on me. The head OB called me today and told me I don’t have a good enough reason to be induced. But yet they will allow a woman to schedule a c-section just because she wants it.

They said all they will do is give me a referral (you need one when pregnant here) to either go to the chiropractor or to go to physical therapy but I won’t get the referral until almost 37 weeks. Also here place aren’t taking new patients and the places that are, are booked for the next month or so.

So with this being said does anyone know of ways to induce labor. I wouldn’t try until 38 weeks

The doctor that called me has never seen me and doesn’t work in the same office. She is not my doctor and never has been. She just seen the email to my doctor and felt the need to answer.
