I was induced at 37 weeks when my blood pressure was going up in minutes and had a very high level of protein in my urine. I was right on the verge of preeclampsia.

ileannarenee,  you might want to ask your doctor again why you are getting induced.  If you are 38 weeks, 6 days,  4 cm and 100% effaced that is actually a reason not to induce.  You're practically in labor.  

Can you ask your health provider again why you are being induced?  (It may be because there are health conditions you have that you haven't mentioned in your post.)

My doctor induced me at 1/2 dilated.. but did it cause I was so huge and she knew how uncomfortable I was cause how small I was ... but when I got there thank god she did cause my son was all wrapped up in the cord around his neck in stuff every time they lay me on my right side he stopped breathing they rushed me into c section.  So I wasblessed  she induced me when she did

I got induced with my first. Because I was 10 days late. This one idk if I'll be induced early or on my due date because of my gestational diabetes or not. But if I don't go into labor on my own I'll probably get induced at 41 weeks.

I'm getting induced tomorrow I'm 38 weeks and 6 days. The reason I'm getting induced is because I'm already 4cm dilated and 100% effaced.
