  • Should She Ask to Be Induced?

    QUESTION

    Dear Midwife
    My daughter is 40 weeks pregnant with her first child. Her due date was 3/12/. At her prenatal exam yesterday the midwife said that she was 1-2 cms dilated, 80% effaced and the baby is +1 station. She is having pain but nothing time-able. It has now been more than 24 hours. Should we just wait around or ask to be induced?
