Due date

6 hours away from due date.. Still no proper pains.. Everyones calling me 'is she here yet?!' 'Any pains' but no :( anyone else?

Re: Due date

  • Only about 5% of women (or something like that) actually deliver on their due date. I wouldn't worry about it. 

    Sorry that people are bugging you on the phone... like you wouldn't let them know if you'd delivered!

    Not sure if this means anything to you, but I'm big into stats; they comfort me.

    Just saw a study that listed 3.9% on due date, and only 42% gave birth on or before their due date.

    50% of women give birth between 39-41 weeks.

    74% will have given birth by the end of week 41.

  • @aletto30 your post made me think of the 39 week post on Pregnant Chicken:

    "It’s right around this time that there’s a slooow shift from you being perceived as a glowing woman that is creating life, into a fat husk that’s hoarding that adorable baby they all want to see."
