It depends on  your doctor and how you're progressing.
If you're not dilating at all our anything like that, they may make you wait it out longer. Just cause there's a slightly higher chance of c section of your induced before any signs of labor.
Talk to the doctor and see what you can do. Good luck, I hope everything works out for you.

My doctor is pretty cool with letting her patients choose the date, when scheduling a csection. I guess it would just depend on your doctor, and their schedule. I want mine to be the 13th but my doctor will be out thag day,so now im just like well whatever day is fine.
