So I've wanted my lil man to stay in as long as possible (as with every mom) however, one dr. is wanting to induce me based on my OBs schedule and mine next week. 2 weeks ago I was 35 weeks preggo and my lil man was 4.7 lbs. They said he was small and started seeing me twice a wk, one with the sonogramer and the other with the Dr. (not my ob). Last friday they did dopplers and all tests were good, to the point the Dr. said we could wait until 39 wks but no later. Today i had another sonogram (im now 37 wks) and his weight was 4.12 lbs. He is still gaining weight just not as fast (in my opinion). Pls keep in mind that I am 5'2 and very petite but have gained 28 lbs so far. His father isnt really big either. Yet somehow I am still worried, I know my baby is good but I am really worried about induction and especially at 38 wks because i really wanted to carry full term.

P.S. My 8 yr old daughter was 5.1 lbs when born and weeks early. & she was healthy!
