i dont think they want to induce right now, but sometime in the future. it still doesnt sound right. wikll let her know she should seek another opinion. thanks

I am 5'3 and I was 18 and size 10 when pregnant with my first son. I am also very short waisted and induction was never discussed as an option for me, even though it looked as though my baby was going to tear it's way out of my belly via the stretch marks I had. My son was born 9lb7oz and 51cms.

I think your friend needs a second opinion.

Little people (with dwarfism) are able to carry babies to term. the doctor doesn't know what he/she talking about.

OMG.

The doctor's last name wasn't Patel by any chance??

I'd be shooting off elsewhere.
