[quote=Anonymous] 39 weeks is the point at which the risks are lower for those that induce than those that do not. This is recommended for healthy first-time mothers of any age. It's also helpful for women who are developing pre-eclampsia or other complications of pregnancy. https://www.acog.org/womens-health/faqs/induction-of-labor-at-39-weeks It's been shown to be true for multiparous women as well. "Elective induction of labor in low-risk multiparous women in the 39th week of gestation was associated with decreased perinatal morbidity and a lower frequency of cesarean delivery compared with expectant management." https://www.acog.org/education-and-events/creog/curriculum-resources/-/media/7091e63307bc46f38388b6f6b273f14c.ashx So this really isn't about AMA necessarily. It's true that it decreases risks foremost women.[/quote]
