Savannah induced on her EDD?
Please tell me I herd her wrong.
shareI can't remember - what's EDD referring to?
ETA - Expected Date of Delivery ... I thought that was what she said and was very surprised. I would think that unless her or her baby's life were in danger, they would give her a little more time. Maybe the doctor was going to be taking a vacation and wanted to get the delivery out of his/her way. (Seriously, that's a disturbing thought and hope it isn't the case).

I haven't seen the episode yet, but it's possible she had something going on that would make them induce on her due date. A friend of mine just had her fourth yesterday. She was induced on her due date because her blood pressure was starting to creep up and I don't think her doctor wanted to wait for an emergency.
I was induced a couple days after my due date because I was so very miserable and was showing zero signs of labor. I had pupps, and was itching so badly I was scratching myself raw. It was awful. The induction failed, and I ended up with a c section several days later after I didn't go into labor on my own and a second induction failed to produce a baby also.
Anyway, it could have been something like that. Not life threatening, but not something so trivial as vacation plans.
My mother was due in late December/early January and her mom was the last mom in late pregnancy the ob had left before Christmas and he induced my grandmother on like Dec 10th. It almost killed my mom & grandmother cause he wanted an uninterrupted Christmas season. Backfired on him tho cause the complications meant he couldn't leave town anyways.
