They will not induce your labor unless your water breaks or you have a serious health condition anytime before 38 weeks. Usually for a normal pregnancy they will wait until 41 or 42 weeks. If you go any later than that, personally I think you should demand to be induced because you baby is being put at risk staying in there that long. The plancenta begins to deteriorate and the oxygen supply is cut down.

∙ 12y agoNatural inducing won't work all the time unless you are somewhat effaced and dilated partially, but it's always safe to wait until you have reached atleast 38 weeks to try anything, as it can harm your unborn child, although full term is considered 37 weeks by most obgyn's, sometimes due dates can give or take 2 weeks that's why they are called estimated due dates.
