Don't say a thing!: I strongly advise against this. Induced labors have significantly stronger risk of complications for your baby including needing to be admitted to the ICU ; increased risk you will need a c-section etc. Please put the health of your baby ahead of your feeling a few more days of discomfort! your baby will induce labor when it's ready.

'Please induce me': But, probably he or she shouldn't quite yet.
