Inducing labor : Yes, of course. But no one here can override the professional you are working with at home. They will have a plan in place for any complication that may arise. They may have ethical guidelines that they will follow on baby size, maturity and when it is safe to deliver. Your baby is now an average size. It is not big when compared to all pregnancies.
