Doppler Scan 37 weeks 0 day- Is baby big
I have attached the scan done today where the Doctor radiologist said baby is almost 3.5 kg and 1 week ahead of gestation. Last time I met my Gynaecologist she had told me that if baby weight is above 3.2 kg, she suggest going for early induction if I don't want to do C section, also she will suggest the timing. Have to see her tomorrow as she is wasn't available today. However, I would like to please ask for advise if I can wait for my labour to begin spontaneously or have to start inducing for early labour. I fear early inducing can cause unnecessary problems? I don't have sugar and gained a total of 8 kgs so far. Please advise?

You definitely need induction of labour in view of less amniotic fluid
amniotic fluid less than 10 is low
