At this point, I would say at birth. Unless they are concerned about a growth problem, most likely you won't know unless the baby is born. Your doctor should be checking you to see if you are effacing and dilating, I was checked for the first time this week (36 weeks). Your doctor will also discuss contractions and when to go to the hospital.

Hmmm... that's odd. Usually you are at weekly by 37 weeks. The only reason I could think if is because everything is completely healthy, but still. I would question the office. ***** to he dealing with this stress at the end.
