First time mommy!

[ashhh18]

Do first pregnancies usually go past the due date? Im 37 weeks and my cervix hasnt opened, is that normal?

[stha2012]

Everyone is different like the ladies above me answered.  In my opinion I got very lucky and had my first at 37 weeks and my second at 36 weeks 2 days. Time will tell what this baby does.  They come when there ready so be prepared! Good luck :)

I'm on baby number 5 and over 37 weeks and cervix is still closed!

My first was born at 37wks. Just be prepared and like the others said...dilation doesn't mean much of anything.

I think it really just depends on the person my first pregnancy my son was born at 38wks 4days

Also a ftm!!  40+3days and no cervical change!  My doctor said that 1st pregnancies usually do go over.  But everyone is different!

most go to the due date and to top that off most dont experience cervix change until labor actually starts..

everyone is different.. but if it helps at all, i was 3 cm and 90% effaced at 37 weeks and my baby was born the day before her due date sooo it doenst always matter
