[quote=Anonymous]I was induced at 39w2d because I was 41. I loved my induction experience and like another poster, was nervous about the risk of stillbirth past this point. I know of several physicians who opted for 39 week inductions for themselves because of this concern, so that swayed me too. The no food after a certain point sucked and it did take a long time to dilate. But I was able to get an epidural right after contractions took off, even got some sleep overnight and then baby was born vaginally after 20 minutes of pushing. No panic over going into labor at home, nice simple hospital check in. Easy recovery. I know I was lucky in this regard and that c sections are also a possible outcome, but I was really happy with the choice.[/quote]
