I was due Christmas day. My mom's doctor said, "I don't want to work on Christmas, so we're gonna get him out early." No talk of safety or anything else was ever discussed. I suppose there was an implicit threat that she'd get whatever unlucky random doctor was on call Xmas instead of her actual doctor.
My older sibling was a C-section, so I was going to be a C-section anyways. It just became a planned c-section due to the holiday.
