That's today... Due dates can go two weeks either way. They are just estimates and should not be looked at as an absolute. Very few women have their babies on their due date. I know how tired you are of waiting but your baby is on its way don't worry. My due date is the 27th and I feel very ready too. Hang in there.

July 17th is today, right? If this is your first baby, it's very normal for them to come later than the due date. And that date is just an estimate. No reputable doctor will induce you at this point.

Most doctors dont give an exact date anymore since it's not an exact science. Most of them tell a woman they are "due on or around XX/XX"
You may not deliver for another week or 2...no one knows. 4-5 days is not overdue. They wont consider you overdue until you are past 40 weeks.

My first child was 2 weeks overdue and I had to be induced!
The second one was only 5 days overdue and didn't have to be induced, since I went into labor by myself after cleaning my whole house (three levels) 2 times in one day!!!

it's very normal to not go into labor on or before your due date.. only a small percentage of women actually deliver on their due date. Be patient... and if you can't take it anymore, ask your doctor about induction.

Not me, but I was overdue with both my babies. 6 days with my son, and 4 days with my daughter. She's 5 months now. It will happen very soon.!! I can understand you excitement, and the desire to get it out. God Bless

If you haven't had the baby by tomorrow then your doctor will be glad to induce you. If the doctor doesn't induce have some caster oil.

Go do the nasty with your man...It may sound weird but it works...
It will loosen things up down there and you will be ready to roll..
Good Luck with the baby !
