40 Weeks Pregnant

![]() | As of today, I am 40 weeks pregnant – today is Baby’s due date! My Braxton-Hicks contractions have been coming more frequently. At one point, they were coming every 10 minutes for just over an hour, but they eventually stopped after I went to bed. For the last couple of days, they have been just as irregular as before. I had a doctor’s appointment yesterday, and there were slight changes from last week. I now weigh 148 pounds, I’m between 3 and 4 cm dilated, 75-80% effaced, and Baby’s head is at station -1 to 0. The midwives seem to think he may arrive this weekend. |
You never know, though, because that’s what we all thought last weekend. Anyway, they set me up with an appointment on Tuesday for an ultrasound to check his amniotic fluid, etc. If he doesn’t arrive by then, they will begin to make arrangements for his arrival. In other words, they’ll look to induce labor. I’m patient, though. He’ll come when the time is right.
