41+2 here with baby number 2 and really would recommend you ladies don't torture yourselves by assuming an early baby! Get your head ready for 40 wks gestation as a bare minimum. I did and am so glad that I did given where am now at and what I have watched other mums go through who didn't. My first was a week late.  Have had some really down feeling sorry for myself days but only allowed myself to feel like that once past 40. As hard as it is you can't make baby magically appear and will just upset yourselves. I have had three false alarms and my membrane sweep was a none starter thanks to my posterior cervix and tried sex, squats, walking etc etc. But I am sucking it up as it looks like this little one is a sleepy head. Good luck all xx

38 wks here and I've officially had 2 false labors! Lol so annoying!  My body can't take it anymore and my doc will sweep my membranes in 9 days! Ugh I hope I don't make it that long but at least I have that if I do!
