Listen to your body, not your partner, he's not the one giving birth after all!
Not sure how it works at your hospital but at mine you can refuse induction and have monitoring instead- would that reassure your partner if he saw that everything was fine with your baby?
Explain to him that intervention carries with it risk for both you and baby also.
I was having contractions for past 3 nights at night so that’s a really good sign and today have gone into early labour… I think. It’s taking longer than my first birth. 🤣
