I say go for it too. I was induced with all of mine and my last one I wanted to go at 38 weeks, but here they changed the guidelines for an elective induction and I had to wait until 39 weeks. My dr said he would have done it, but he couldn`t, it wasn`t up to him. So if your dr can do it at 38 weeks and it works out with your hubby`s schedule thats great! I think it would be best for everyone for him to be there for the birth and baby`s first week. That gives them a chance to get to know each other more before he has to go. :o)

i think its a great idea its not selfish. baby is full term at 38 weeks so why not allow ur husband to share the experience with u?

If doctor says it`s safe and gives you a go ahead you should do it. My husband isn`t going to be here for the birth of our daughter and it just kills me and I know I wouldn`t want anyone to go through what I am. You are lucky if you have the option to do it that way =)

If i were u i would do it a week early so he can be there and its not as early as 2 weeks, i dont think even 2 weeks would matter much though. I think the dad should be there for the birth if its possible

I say if everything is going well with the pregnancy and your dr is ok with it, go for it! I couldn`t imagine not having the daddy there for the birth. I would probably do it.

I had an elective induction with my 3rd. My husband and I moved 8 hours away from my mom (labor coach) and thats the farthest Ive ever been from her. I have all my kids naturally and couldnt imagine her missing it. I really believe I cant have babies naturally without her lol So I decided to have an elective induction to make sure shed be able to be there with me.

not to be mean and i know i am gonna hear crap from other moms but i wouldn`t do it. once you are a parent you should do whats best for baby not whats best for you. even tho it will be ok i still think its a bit selfish. I know how hard it is to have a baby with out dad their too. and i think he should try to be closer to you. i too have 3 kids under 3 well my oldest just turned 3 but its crazy hard. but whatever you decide i hope you all the best.
