Yes. After the due date came and went, and the wife ballooned, pre-eclampsia, pre-diabetes... we set a date with the doc, to make sure. The inducements to the little tyke to make his appearance were many and varied, and just as widely ignored.

OK, thank you for explaining. Pre-eclampsia yes, that would be a very good reason. The reason why I asked is because a lot of people get told lies in order to get them to agree to things like C-sections. Too many interventions are done while they're not always necessary. But in the case of pre-eclampsia, that would be one of a few reasons to have an elected section.
