[quote=Anonymous]FTM, normal-sized baby, 35, with one complication. And if you're set to be induced on Saturday, that means you're between 39 and 40 weeks right now, right? Based on my experience, I don't think there's any urgent reason why you should be induced now and generally, yeah, I'd try to keep baby cooking till 41 weeks. That being said, considering the particularities of your risk, there's nothing magical about keeping the baby in for longer. Not having an epidural with an induction sounds like an absolute nightmare to me, as does having a c section under general. So, given the risk/tradeoffs here, I'd go with a 40 week induction as being nice and in the middle. I had two inductions -- one at 41 weeks (kinda), and one at 39 weeks. Whatever you do, be prepared for it to take a while.[/quote]
