My first was born on her exact due date and my second came 12 days early via induction. I was in labor all night with him and been pumped with penicillin a few times due to Group B Strep but stopped dilating at 3cm. My midwife asked me if I wanted to go home or be induced. I opted for induction since I was already hooked up to an IV and had been mentally preparing myself for birth all night. It turned out to be be a wise decision because his shoulders were so big that he got stuck and had to be pried out. Any bigger and either he wouldn't have made it or he wouldn't have been born vaginally at all.
