quick question. I am 33 weeks pregnant, and I would like to be induced. how early with the doctor can I schedule it? I know I have to wait at least 38 weeks, said from my doctor, but I mean..could I choose the day at 33 weeks, or when I'm 37 weeks just say "hey can I have the baby next Tuesday?" the reason I would like to be induced is because I live 45 minutes from the hospital, I'm working up to the day I deliver so I don't want to go into labor at work, and my family lives 4 hours away.

Most doctors won't induce you unless you go over your due date or if you have complications.

exactly as @caydensmommy said. induction isn't just for when you want it, some doctors will do it, but its supposed to only be for overdue and complications.

He already said that I can schedule it. I just didn't know if I could go ahead and plan it now or if I have to wait

usually they have you wait and give you days and times to set up and call hospital ...you can think of a day but they won't ask till your further along.

I wouldn't even think about it until after 38 weeks. most places can't induce you unless you're 39 other wise ins can refuse to pay. living that far from the hospital isn't that uncommon. I live an hour from mine. and just because u get induced doesn't mean family will be able to come regardless of distance. alot of people can't take off work like that. but it's just a thought. it's better to let the baby come on its own.

My midwife said they don't do social inductions. I was so upset I wanted her on a special day for my family! Good luck girl
