[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd push back on this and stay firm. Unless your health is impacted, ie your blood pressure is going up, or the baby's health is impacted, there's no need for an induction because of predicted birth weight. These predictors for birth weight are notoriously wrong. Also, you are much more likely to have to have a c-section if the induction stalls. A c-section, while very common, is major surgery. [/quote] This. Doctors like to induce because then They can schedule your delivery instead of otherwise having to come in the middle of night when you go into labor.[/quote] I think this is more the case with c-sections. Inductions aren’t that predictable and your doctor might still very well be catching a baby at 2am. [/quote]
