Induction or planned C section

I’m in similar boat and there’s been a thread already about this… seems to be a common thing atm which is strange. I wouldn’t suggest a c-section as a better option in my opinion the recovery can be longer. I find out tomorrows growth scan if dipped again they spoke of induction at 39 weeks when I was 37 weeks and now I’m 39 weeks I’m not looking forward to it! But I will refuse it if baby is healthy

I wouldn’t listen to the centiles personally, all throughout my second pregnancy baby was measuring small, lowest centile was -3, I went to term and laboured naturally (did end in a section by choice) and she was born on the 28th centile, even bigger than my first. We went through so many tests and worry, I know it doesn’t always work out but just do what you think is best x

There are some good doula accounts on Instagram who talk about the issue with growth scans and unnecessary intervention. If I was in your position I'd seek some advice on it as waiting could be the best option but there is often a lot of pressure to hurry things along and when we think it is needed to keep baby safe we go along with it x
