Charlotte update on growth u/s

She gained one pound! But her percentile dropped again to the 'less than 5th'. To recap, her are her percentiles per every 3 weeks: 5, 7, 12, 9, 5, and this week under 5. She weighs about 3 lb 11oz, are thinking 4 at birth. Hopefully she will shock everyone and chunk up!
Since she didn't plateau, they are going to let her go to 37 weeks, but we are inducing at 36 weeks, 5 days.... In one week!! May 16, one day before hunters birthday, but if it wasn't this Thursday, it would be the next which puts us at higher risk of still born. Or we could have done it ON his bday and I didn't want to do that! We are doing his party this weekend, and going to love on him extra for one week.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers and positivity! This has been an emotionally tough pregnancy!

Fingers crossed, she makes it to 5 lbs.
Our LO was small too and I was induced as well. In the moments after I deliver my OB said something about weight 5lbs ish, and I remember saying something about her being born in the 5th month, at 5 in the morning weighing 5 lbs and all the fives, but then the nurse announced no she is 6lbs 2 oz.
