How do they know for sure that the baby is dagerously large? Numerous
women in this group have been told to induce b/c of a 10-11lb baby
that turned out to be 8-9lbs. That said, it is possible to give birth
to an 11lb baby naturally, so I'm still not seeing a clear reason to
induce or schedule a c-section.
