Thanks girls.

I rang the hospital and spoke to the midwife yesterday, rang my sister in law (who is a GP) and spoke to her as well. They were of some help in providing me with information but at the end, I will have to make the decision myself.

I guess my biggest fear is stillbirth and I really want my bub to be safe... she will definitely be safer if she is delievered and in my arms right now! . My OB probably senses my anxiety throughout this pregnancy and that is probably the reason why he suggested it (and probably it is more convenient for him if it was planned during his hospital round anyway).

Thanks Kaydee for sharing your experience, it is good to hear positive experiences with induction.

LNB - yes you are even closer to EDD than me. Here is to us both and hopefully we will go into labour in the next couple of days!

After careful consideration, I think I will wait for another week if required. And I will request for monitoring. Hopefully I won't have to worry and bub would come out soon.

Thanks everyone for you input and advice.

To those newly pg, congrats... hope the stress that I am going through does not put you off with your glow in being newly preg.. enjoy it as time will fly very quick once you pass the 12 weeks mark.

Take care everyone
