@cubanese, read my post above

@cubanese, read my post above

I do not agree with forcing the baby out. I personally want my little one to be at 40 weeks due to brain development. as bad as I would love to have him at 37 weeks I know its better for him at 40 weeks. but I agree moms shouldnt be forcing induction. if a dr isnt saying its needed dont force it. you can inch it along when you're 39-40 but just let baby come on its own time

@mommyrai, Yeah! All on the baby. This was just for people who think cause they are 37 weeks its time to get baby out. Some women actually do harmful things to "try" to get baby out.

either way if a mom wants to do it by 37 weeks I feel like no one should squash her happiness if thats what makes her excited. i mean either way its not like she can force the baby out by 37 weeks its all the babys time.

@cubanese, Thank you.

& no im not being a jackass. im just confused by the article. they have two different points on it.

so they have a double standard in this article. if 37 weeks to 38+2 is "early term" then why all of a sudden at the bottom its 37 weeks to 42 weeks is a "term" pregnancy. i feel like if a mom wants to go by 37 weeks at full term then let her. by the article it seems as though they cant decide.
