Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion if all the parameters like amniotic fluid,fetus and mother are fine one can wait upto 1 week past the due date.But meanwhile a eye should be kept on fetal movements.If still there are no pains and if there is a possibility for normal delivery then it can be induced.If the induction fails or normal delivery is difficult then surgery might be the option.
