My wife was 40 weeks pregnant and the doctors gave her one week to get the baby out or they’d C-section her, which she didn’t want She hopped on the treadmill and RAN 5 miles with her big belly flopping to induce labor You can definitely do that thing you’ve been putting off.

I see. I don't know about complications if the baby stays inside past the 40 weeks so I thought it was too pushy from the clinic for offering a time limit. Anyhow, your wife is truly admirable. Thank you for the reply too. I want to be a mom soon so this kind of scared me a bit.

The statistics on stillbirth if you go post-dates are not good. The whole "baby knows when they're ready" thing hasn't been true since we started doing routine dating ultrasounds an the start of prenatal care. Why c-section vs induction I don't know.

Why not induce, then? That's what happened with my wife.
