would i be selfish if i

asked my OB to induce me at 37 weeks due to a bad back and cant handle the pain? i was born with Scoliosis my spines curves i do have a medical issues and my OB knows about it.

Yes.

Yes. And they probably won't anyway.

I'm sorry you're back is hurting so much, but you CAN do it. A few more weeks is not that long, you've already made it this far! Just keep hanging on momma, it's what's best for baby.

You can ask but they won't.

Honestly Yes.

Yes. Just tough it out. When you got pregnant you knew you would be pregnant for 40 weeks.

Quoting ℳary ℐane:" Yes. "

   
unless being pregnant is actually breaking your back and going to cause some life threatening issue it is selfish...

Yes very. You signed up for 40 weeks once you got pregnant. How would you feel if your baby couldn't breath on its own because you couldn't handle a little back pain?

Yes, and I have scoliosis too.

Do any of you have severe scoliosis? It's not just a little back pain. I wouldn't induce OP Bit I do understand how much severe scoliosis can affect you. Hang in there! It will be over soon

yep....


I most of my pregnancy in pain. and I know it sucks. But that's part of pregnancy is waiting until baby is ready to come out.

Over back pain that isnt life threatening? IMO yes.....plus most wont induce unless its serious and even then its 39 weeks. 37 weeks is too earoy IMo

They will def not do it that early for that reason.

It's also not going to kill her.
