Just want to say well done for waiting I have had three births and one was artifically induced due to being past due date by 10 days. My baby showed no signs of being over cooked at all... placenta ws in good condition etc.

I had heard of the measurements thing being important but have always wondered if they take genetics into account... say the dad was really tall/big and he wasn't present... does this mean they would expect bub to arrive earlier if bub had his genes? My DH is on the smaller side for a guy... lucky i at least had that in my favour if they ever took measurements into account. 2 of my pregnancies were technically overdue... I think length can depend on the woman just like some women have longer menstrual cycles. My third baby was induced at 37 weeks... and was 9 pounds! you never can tell sometimes!

good luck! Hope you start naturally... it really is a much better way to do it... from my experience.
