Refusing induction - shoulder dysplasia

It is ultimately your choice, they can advise to induce but you can turn it down. They also advise inducing after you hit 40 weeks. You can turn it down then too
They wanted me to be induced due to high bp and possible pre eclampsia and he was a big baby around 37 weeks I said no and ended up with pre eclampsia at 39 and had a c section and he came out at 7lbs 2 not 9lbs like they told me …glad I said no because he would of been so small !! Go with ur gut x
Thank you all, I had told the midwife and doctor I wanted a C-section because of all these complications going on with my body as well as him coming up big, they’ve told me to hold off on the thought and wait for my next growth scan, and are trying to encourage me to be induced but I would rather clamp my legs shut than be induced as I’m aware it can also increase the risk, I just want baby out safely and I’m struggling to understand why the doctor seems to be against me having one tbh
They can’t say no if you want it you can have it x
I would stick to your gut and push for a c-section. Inductions can be dangerous and if there is another option, I’d push for that. YOU are in charge l. Unless an emergency occurs, push for what you want.
