YOU'RE PREGNANT? KEEP CALM...

Have you been anxious? It been 38th weeks, and you're yet to feel any contraction or false labor at this stage. Now, you're really scared. The question you've been asking yourself, relatives/folks is, is this normal?

KEEP CALM, Beautiful...

Full term is from 36-40 weeks so you are ok. Be counting active kicking periods of the baby and see a doctor immediately if you don't feel at least ten kicks or movements through the day as it could indicate fetal stress. At 40th weeks your doctor should talk about plans for induction between 40-42 weeks. After 42 weeks the placenta begins to deteriorate so your doctor will not permit you to go beyond.

Kicks may be felt anywhere between 30-40 weeks, but many women don't notice them because they're only for toning the uterine muscles and many times are too light to notice. A practitioner would check her cervix for dilation and "ripening" and may call for an ultrasound to check placenta fluid but most won't induce until 40th weeks because edd calculation is not a perfect science but an educated guess based on fetal size, menstrual date, and uterine expansion but it can vary plus or minus 2 weeks

AN EXPERIENCED MOTHER SAID:
I had my first baby on the 38th weeks while the 2nd one was few days after 39weeks. I started my maternity leave after my 37th week thinking that it was going to be the same with the 1ast one, I spent 2weeks and no show, I went to the hospital and my Doctor told me to calm down that there was no cause for alarm. I was getting tired already by then, I gave birth in the 39th week and 4 days.
Though, full term is 40weeks but u can visit your Doctor and don't forget to always pray.
