A member asked:
Can i be electively induced at 40weeks 2days at 1cm dilated with an unfavorable cervix?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Up to OB: That would be up to your OB and how your pregnancy has gone. The one thing you don't want to do is try to induce an "unripe cervix" and then have the induction fail and that just sets you up for a c-section. If not in labor by 41 weeks, you will probably be induced then.
