Pressure to have induction

At about 37 weeks I was being pressured to have an induction even though I didn't want one. I had a number of staff in the appointment with me and it wasn't a comfortable appointment. Although I was saying no at this point I was told that I needed to say to them that if my baby died it was on me as their advice was to induce as they believed the baby was big. Of course my baby wasn't big in the end and everything was fine.
