Due date confusion

My initial due date from my last period was 3rd of June. It was changed to 30th of May after the 12 week scan. I really doubt the date estimated by the scan as my ovulation is always painful, so when calculating from that, the due date must be around 4th of June. I really want to give the baby as much time to come on his own, and the midwife is suggesting booking an induction tomorrow. I'd like to book it for 42 weeks, but now I'm not sure which due date I should go by to decide when to induce. What do you guys think? x

I would listen to your body and wait as long as you can. Just explain the above to the midwives, and don’t let them push you into doing something you don’t want to. I sadly ended up getting induced and ended in emergency c section however I didn’t get induced until 43 weeks because I was soooo adamant to wait for baby to come naturally. You can wait, you can do it! Trust your body xx
