Your due date is only an estimate, the baby will come when it is good and ready, and yes it is hard going over cause you want it to be over with and you are tired of being pregnant. I went 3 weeks over with one of mine so I know how it feels. Whatever you do dont do something stupid to try to go into labor, I had a friend who tried bouncing on a trampoline and it cause the cord to loop around the babys neck and she had to have a c-section. The baby knows when it is ready and that is when it will come, not when you are ready for it to come.

Don't worry your little one will surprise you any time soon. I have three children and had natural labour with all three and lucky for me they all came two weeks early. My gynae explained to me that this was natural as the due date is worked out according to your last mensrtuation and the assumption that all women ovulate on day 14 of their cycle, but this is not always true, some women ovulate right in the beginning of their cycle as I did and then the baby comes early and other women ovulate at the end of their cycle and then the baby can be up to 2 weeks late, but believe me it will only stay in there as long as it has to, I think it is feeling just as uncomfortable as you! Good luck and enjoy!!!

First pregnancies can be up To 2 weeks late. Keep in mind that your due date is an approximation. An estimated arrival date. Hang in there. Try to rest! Once the baby arrives you won't be resting anymore :)

Honey, my baby was TWO WEEKS late. Your due date is an estimate, they cant get it dead on. They say that the baby can be two weeks before that date or even two weeks later. They're no certainty. He or she will arrive when they are ready. I know thats not something you want to hear but trust me, I know what youre feeling!

sometimes you can carry up to 2 weeks after your due date! They don't let you go any longer than that. I promise you it will end soon, you wont be pregnant forever. Good luck
