Baby is suspected big is normal possible

At week 33 the baby weighed at 2.3 kg, at week 37 I will get another scan. If the baby is above 3 kg asked to get induced. How long can I wait for labour to happen naturally before I have to induce labour. Is getting induced more painful? I need advise on my alternatives before I chose to get induced and at which week is getting induced better?

Normal delivery depends on a lot of factors not just based on baby weight. If you are keen on normal delivery discuss with your treating doctor,  they will be able to help you the best.

If you have no risk factors at all and baby is growing healthy you can wait upto 40weeks for spontaneous labour pains to occur. Natural labour or induced labour both are equally painful . Your birth passage should be good, this can only be diagnosed with physical check up. Baby weight more than 3 kg is not indication of induction of labour. Combination of factors we have to think about. Do get NST done at 36 weeks

Baby weight of 3 kg is not a criteria for induction.there must be some other factors for which your obstetrician suggested that. Kindly discuss with treating obstetrician.
