After 35 weeks appt

Hi, i just had my KKH 35+1 day appt and was told baby on the bigger side 3kg. Told me to come back 2 weeks later for 37 weeks appt. May i know for 37 weeks what should i be expecting? Are they expecting my waterbag to break on its own so that i can deliver? Or are they going to determine if they should induce? When should i tell my company my ML period? I dont know which date I'm giving birth thus i can't commit any dates yet. Sorry for being this confused but I'm a FTM. Any advices is appreciated. #ftm #35weeks

Hi mummy! I went for my 35weeks scan and baby was at 3kg too with a big head. On Friday I went for my 37weeks appt, doc checked my cervix and I was 1cm dilated, with a soft cervix. We discussed what my birth plan is and doc encouraged for natural birth due to my fibroid. Since cervix is soft, doc planned for me to be induced at 39 weeks, so I'll have now till then to naturally go into labour cos I don't want to be induced. They gave me HL to last me till my induction date. I'll meet her again this Thursday for my 38week appt, and she'll check how dilated I am then.
