Earliest ob would deliver?

Yes and even then its a bit iffy as they worry that if dates are out baby could be prem and have normal prem issues. So often they want 37+4 or 5.

Hugs hun must be stressful and scary for you xoxo

None of mine would induce earlier than 37+5. Ds2 was induced at 37+6 even though we were 100% sure of his gestation. Those few days can make a huge difference! Most OBs are happy to do it from 38wks.

Mine (through the Rockingham hospital) wanted me to go as long as possible, we're having this one at 38+6

I was induced at 37 weeks exactly after discussion with my doctors of my concerns (i had previously lost a baby at 32 weeks). I initially only inquired about the ability to be induced at the earliest "safe" date. My doctor (who is a high risk specialist) advised that from 37 weeks that would be fine. However i think it depends on the doctor, your physical health ( i had gestational diabetes) and your mental wellbeing. My mental wellbeing was not great towards the end and my doctor ended up recommending that i be induced.
