» Missmiss - dont want to be induced

I'm 40 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I have an appointment tomorrow with my doctor who wants to induce me. The problem is I don't want to be induced. Everything is fine with both the baby and I. I don't care that i'm still pregnant all I want is for this baby to come out naturally or for the doctor to atleast let me wait until 42 weeks. I hate this doctor and i'm afraid he is going to pressure me into doing something I don't want to do. What are my rights in this situation and what should I say to him? Also my baby hasn't dropped and i'm scared that by inducing now will cause me to have to have a c-section which i REALLY do not want. HELP!!!!!

In response to dont want to be induced posted by Missmiss:


You could agree to an NST or even a biophysical profile in order to determine if the baby is doing well enough to wait for awhile.
