Lol, A baby arrival button....is an actual button this app sends after you have reached 36+ weeks. Once you have delivered, your suppose to push the click button to let everyone know, you have delivered your baby. Some woman said they received the button and others did not, I guess it's a luck thing with webMd lol

@pattyann well I saw the doctor today but he hasn't even checked me. I do feel alot of cramping but nothing too alarming. He will probably check next week.

@ahlesha921 no ur not an idiot. It means the thinning or ripping of your cervix. @mary you should have it already if your 37+ weeks

Effaced is when your cervix is thinning out for delivery

Its just a button you get at 36 weeks and I guess you press it when the baby arrives not sure what happens or if that's exactly what you do lol
