The bigger he gets, the more the placenta is struggling to give him everything he needs, so by inducing labor and having him born a little early he will come out and get the proper nourishment he needs on the outside because I can't provide it anymore.
Ahhh...so there is a medical reason. Then it all makes much more sense. Thanks and I hope only the best for you and Nug!

PS - how is he ever going to be able to explain "Nug" to his friends?
