Here We Go Again...

I can't say about all cases because I only heard from new Mums who were going to be induced - making us aware they would need to pick up carseats and other items early. In many cases it was because the baby would be large enough to cause a difficult birth if left.

Women who carried past their official due date didn't need to contact us in the shop.
So I admit my experience is biased.

My brother was nearly two weeks overdue and over 10lbs. Oof! Then again, he was her third. He was close to crowning by the time she arrived at the hospital, they skipped the maternity ward and took her straight to the birthing room.
