my doctor offered me inductions since 38 weeks, so maybe it depends on the doctor...
you can ask to be induced at or after 40 weeks, and I'm sure they will induce you.
usually your doc won't induce you before 40 weeks but will induce you by 42 weeks if you have not went into labor yet.
my baby has been measuring small my entire pregnancy, I stop gaining weight and now her movement has decreased so I have 2 non stress test and an ultrasound a week, so after failing my 2 last 2 non stress test my Dr thought it's best to be induced at 37 weeks
@mommy2dreux, I want her to come naturally
