Why are you getting induction dates set in advance?

I’ve been noticing so many people in the group mention that their doctors are setting induction dates for weeks later and I was curious as to why. (Not asking in a rude way, just genuinely curious as my doctor hasn’t said a peep and is totally fine with me going to 41+ weeks)

Is it a medical reason, did you ask, or did the doctor just say we’re going to set a date?

I’m currently 37+2.
