A member asked:
I have been scheduled to be induce on friday. today im 40 weeks pregnant. is it still possible to have a natural birth instead of a c section?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If your cervix is soft, and already dilating your chances of a vaginal delivery are better. Hopefully the induction will go smoothly. Good luck!
