when will they induce?? Scared of baby being very late!!!

I've been on this app for most of my pregnancy and am almost 29 weeks. I've noticed a lot of women are overdue and am soooo scared that that will happen to me and I won't get to spend as much time with my son since my maternity leave is for 4 months and starts a 4 weeks before my due date. How over due do you have to be for labor to be induced?

I have a week left. And still no regular contractions. But don't stress about it. The  more you stress about, the likely it will delay. I'm trying to relax, but it's so darn hard to when I'm so excited.

My ob said they would be okay to induce after my due date but not before. I'm due 12/23 so im going to ask to be induced 12/29. Hopefully I go before then but it's nice to have a "baby by date"
