Answer to Question 1

Labor induction may be done in cases in which labor is slow to progress, pregnancy has lasted beyond 42 weeks, the baby is large, preeclampsia exists, or in cases of fetal death. Unless there is a medical reason, most women are advised to avoid labor induction (Amis, 2007; Durham et al., 2008). Some women elect to have inductions for nonmedical reasons, including anything from wanting to avoid birthing on a certain day (such as a holiday) or to accommodate a woman or her partner's work schedule.
