Are you having any problems? Is this your
first child? my first was induced and it
hurt bad... my second was natural and it
wasn't so bad....really up to you.

i think a lot of doctors induce because
it's more convenient for them. baby will
come when baby is ready!
if you prefer to wait for labor to start
on its own, you should.
i had an "emergency" induction and after
14 hours of horrendous labor i ended up
with a c-section. if i hadn't needed the
induction i would have waited.
good luck! whatever you choose your baby
will be here very soon!

on his own..The Dr agreed as finally its
our descison..next visit on the 12th

that we are askd to go to the labour ward

Unless there's a serious health threat to
you or your baby, I would strongly oppose
inducing. Inducing contractions will mean
that you would need an anesthetic of some
type ie an epidural etc because the pain
will be to an extent that was not meant
naturally for your body.
