Hi All!

This is my first post so be kind

I'm 37 weeks exactly today and I have a growth scan and clinic appointment on Wednesday (37+3) the reason for this is as my pregnancy was through icsi I'm considered high risk and I'm consultant led. I've had a number of growth scans and baby always measures over the 95th percentile. The consultant wasn't available after my last scan (35+3) so they asked us to come back in 2 weeks for another scan, and that we may be advised to induce early because of size / risk of shoulder dystocia. I'm not keen to induce if we don't have to because of the risk of a CS.

What are your experiences of same / similar situation?

Should I stand my ground / what questions should I ask?

Sorry for rambling!
