Yes dear. Your EDD is 2 weeks away, so try to take this time to get some rest (I know it’s uncomfortable sometimes). I was really impatient during my last trimester, but my kids were just so comfortable in my tummy. 😅 But since the birth, I’ve not slept through the night.. so.. just try to get more rest now. Heh.

It's ok. Mine wasn't when I'm 40 weeks & need to induce. Even that it's not opening 😅. I wanted natural birth but in the end emergency c-sec. It's ok. They will still be healthy 💪

Normal...some mothers go 40 weeks but hospital usually will start to induce and if cervix is still not opening likely to go for c-section

Hi, Yes it is normal. Do not worry much just consult your gynae on the next steps and it should be fine

U mean no dilation yet? If it’s your first pregnancy, it may delay until 39 or 40 weeks.

Hi... it’s normal. However, please consult your gynecologist as you’re at week 38

Normal, I had to be induced in my first pregnancy, I was 39weeks+ then.

Yes it’s normal. Your gynae will monitor and advise u accordingly.

Yes it is. All 3 of mine didnt open until I went in to induce. Haha

Yes, it's normal. You just need to visit gynae more often to check.
