Due dates are only estimates. Babies will usually come within +/- 2 weeks of the estimated date.

typically docs will allow you to go to 42 weeks. The due dates are only an estimate. I went to 42 weeks with 2 of my other 3. However, this time I am opting for elective induction on my due date which is 10/17/16.

Don't stress, baby will come when they are ready :)
