Hi. My DS was induced at 41 weeks and was born by emergency c/section, weighing 10 pounds and 3 ounces. I could not dilate past 3cm as his head could not come down properly through the birth canal, as his head was stuck. He went into distress and straight away the c-section was performed. I was told for quite awhile throughout my pregnancy that he was going to be a decent sized baby, but I wasn't thinking that big.

I am nearly 7 weeks pregnant with our 2nd child, but am having a c-section, as recommended by OB, so I can hopefully avoid the problems I had last time, such as post partum haemorrhage, etc.

Good luck and I hope all goes well.
