like the rest i think 2kg is way too small and there’s no reason to induce unless due to medical reason. baby is not overdue yet so don’t induce!

the reason for inducing a 2kg baby at 37 weeks or below is because it's not getting enough nutrients from the placenta. Doctors advise inducing because of risks of stillbirth. Babies have a higher chance of survival outside the womb after 37 weeks than inside when their food supply is no longer working.
