If youve already been told that youll be induced if baby doesnt come sooner, what are the chances theyll let you schedule things ahead of time? Theyve told me ill need to be induced between 37w 0days and 38w 0days. (Feb 25th-March 4th) I work full time and we have two children already that will need to stay with relatives until we leave the hospital and it would be nice to have more than a couple days notice of when im induced. Im not really sure how to bring things up though or if theyll even actually consider it? The main concern is my job, and putting them in a bind with me suddenly having to take off work mid week without giving proper notice. I know if i went into labor spontaneously it would be the same way, but since theyre planning on inducing it might be easier to give my boss a set date for when i need to start maternity leave.
My 36 week appointment is on Tuesday (two days off of 36 weeks so they count it as 36) so ill definitely be asking since at that time ill be a week from 37 weeks
I had an induction date set a week ahead of time but baby came before the set date. If they already said between those dates go ahead and ask them about scheduling at your next appointment

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...

So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
My OB said I can set a scheduled date after my 36 week appointment...
We are going to discuss it more. It depends on babies size on whether or not I will.
