Keep in mind that the weight is an approximation, not an exact science. Since there is no real medical need for her to be induced at this point, she is actually better off waiting to see if she goes into labor on her own.

The baby will be evaluated after birth and it will be determined whether they can just keep an eye on the cyst, which often resolve themselves, or if they might decide to treat it. Anytime there is an abnormality, baby will be thoroughly checked to be sure all is well.

Hope she doesn't have to wait too much longer!
