Induction or planned c section?

Thats entirely up to you. My choice is a 3rd planned section but that's due to my first not going to plan, ended up being induced and then being an emergency

Personally I'd rather a c section over induction, I know a lot of people who have had poor experiences with induction which is why that's my choice, but only you can really decide what is right for you.

I forgot I was comfortable with having a C-section at 42 and tried to induce at 41 +5 and ended up with emergency c section, which went better than expected but I did have to push back on the doctors for unnecessary rushing/escalation (no one was in danger it was just due to time) I had contractions for 2 weeks but didn’t dilate :(

A planned one is a lot nicer process than an emergency. I would book it in for however late you feel comfortable with and if you dilate before then you can go from there. Really have a conversation with yourself though, I kept going back and forth between everyone’s opinions. Do what’s best for you whatever the path is xx
