The hospital I work for has implemented corporate-wide policies on inductions and scheduled c-sections. Our work has made TIME magazine. Click on this link to access the article.

I totally agree with this policy. Sometimes we just have to remind the very (sick of being)pregnant women about what's safest for the baby. 39 weeks is key here folks.

It's like you're speaking to me.... hm.... maybe having the baby in January will help me not be soooo antsy to get the baby out!!! But I did Connor at 40 weeks and Chloe right at 39. But I was definatly ready to go way before that!! Espically in July and August!! January will help:)
I agree with that completely! I totally am ready to be done by like 36 weeks. But, I know that the babies come out happier and healthier when they cook a bit longer. Only problem is that then my babies stay in there till about 41 weeks! :)
