Almost 38 weeks

I had my doctors appointment today I'm 37 weeks 5 days my doctor said I am 1 cm and 50% thinned out and he could feel babies head I know that her head being down is great and normal at this time... but with doctor feeling her head and her dropped how much longer could it be everyone is different so I understand thank you :)

  • I had my 36 (36 + 4) week appointment and I am 1cm dilated and 70% effaced. Already googled it and ya... it means nothing lol. Other than the doc for me as a FTM was super pleased that my cervix is making changes already. 
  • At 37 weeks I was 1.5 cm dilated and 70% effaced with baby’s head nice and low. My water broke at 39w1d. Your answer basically is could be this very second or you could go a week overdue. Good luck!
  • At my 37 week appointment I was 1 cm dilated and 40% effaced. My best friend had her baby yesterday, 4 days past her due date, and at her 39 week appointment she was 2 cm dilated and 30% effaced. So you never know! She also had a sweep at her 39 week appointment. There was a storm yesterday too, and the drop in barometric pressure sometimes breaks women’s water who are close to their due date. We live in Atlantic Canada.
