August baby going to be a July baby

Just left my last appointment this pregnancy because my ob wants to induce me on Sunday at 37 weeks. This is my 2nd baby and 2nd time being induced at 37 weeks. I am very excited and very nervous. My first birth story isn't all rainbows and sunshine and is traumatic and am worried it will happen again.
But other then that I'm just very excited to finally have a day set where there's a plan to get baby out. I also hope that the birth center calls me nice and early and has a time they want me to be there.

My August baby moved to July too! I was due Aug 4 and they wanted her out before 40 weeks due to my age, so she will be here 7/31 via c-section!
I had a section with my first, if I went into labor naturally before then we were going to try for VBAC, but at this point, I’m just ready to meet her

How come they want to induce you? They are also Inducing me at 37 weeks and 2 days next Thursday due to cholestasis. I’m so ready.

@Cassandra I had hbp with my first and same with this one and my ob is afraid of preeclampsia. So inducing before it gets worse. I have been having headaches.

My due date was 8/27 I’ll be getting included on the 7th instead as well(37w1d). My baby is measuring on the smaller side and my past history (last baby was induced at 37 weeks too for Preeclampsia). I’m so ready I woke up in so much pain in my lower area I wished today was the day. 10 more days God willing. I just pray it goes smooth and I’m able to have a successful vaginal birth. I just known that with inducing things can change. My first birth was vaginal, 2nd emergency c section, 3rd and 4th VBAC.
