37 1/2 Weeks
I had an appointment today and everything looks great with the baby other than the fact that my amniotic fluid level is a little low. I have another appointment scheduled for next Wednesday, but my doctor wants me to come in on Monday to be checked. If the fluid level is still low, then she'll induce me that night or Tuesday morning. Is it bad of me to hope the level is low so I can be induced just under 2 weeks early? I'm still only 1 cm dilated and not really very effaced so I don't expect to go into labor on my own for a while. I guess this means I better get completely ready for the baby this weekend just in case!

NO! I totally wanted to go early, I did EVERTHING I could to go early! Kinley was two weeks early and just fin! She was 7 lbs, 8oz, so thank goodness she didn't stay in there for another two weeks. Good luck, we can't wait to see pics of the little girl!
NO!! Don't wish to be induced! You could be induced twice and in the end have it result in a C-section!
I totally understand you wanting to go early cause by 36 weeks I was done too - but I so wish now that I could have just had her naturally! But at the same time, I had preclampsia and it was unsafe for me. And if your levels are low, you want the baby to be safe too - so what ever is best will happen. But man, I wish that I could go into labor on my own and deliver normally - but I never will now! :(
Good luck! - keep us all posted and I will keep you in my prayers!!
Yes, I remember eating spicey food at Chili's with Tiff to go early. Adam is so big. Can't wait to see the new addition.
Ambra, Ashley was 2 1/2 weeks early, all on her own. Of course the twins were 4 weeks early, but they tried to come at 27 1/2 weeks, and the medicine stopped working at 34 weeks, and I made it to 36 weeks. I will not lie, the entire time I was on bed rest, I just wanted things over SOOOO bad! I felt guilty for feeling that way, but you know.....Anyway, Ashley was perfectly fine at 2 1/2 weeks early. Good luck, you'll be in our prayers!
