Unless she had a c-section scheduled and the baby decided to come earlier than she'd planned on !

Laugh to keep from crying! You know what bothers me about that? It's not that the reporter (or whomever) said that.....it's that MILLIONS of future mamas HEARD that. I hope a good percentage of them had the same thought as you, but I fear that most internalized the message that babies' arrivals can be scheduled.

I know a Grandma whose two daughters are "due" w/in two or three days of each other (one in KS, one in Iowa). She is a bit worried about how she'll be with each daughter as she gives birth, but not TOO worried, b/c after all, the "due" dates are three days apart! Plenty of time to drive up!

Yeah, Lizabear, I hope you're right. Actually, I sort of hope that they had scheduled a c/s for "big baby" or other nonsense and the babe came early - vaginally - proving them wrong!! :LOL
