[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had my babies at 36 and 42, so I've heard the messaging myself. Honestly waiting does raise the risk of stillbirth especially in older moms, and I think educating moms on the ARRIVE study is front of mind for providers especially if that doctor did just deliver a stillborn baby to a mom who didn't want to induce. But since this is your 4th I would be shocked if you needed to be induced to avoid that outcome -- most later babies come earlier and you have a "proven pelvis" unlike FTMs over 40. If you've indicated that you want to have an off the grid home birth with a psychic and a life coach attending, then your provider is trying to steer you back. If you've indicated that you're going to be following medical advice then they need to knock it off or you need to switch to a new practice.[/quote] Exactly. How did your previous pregnancy go? That’s how doctors also assess the need for an induction or not. [/quote]
