You

You probably thought you wouldn't need to read this, but don't be worried, only 5 percent of babies are born on their due date. It's common for the due date to be miscalculated. You will be seeing your doctor or midwife more frequently once you pass 40 weeks, and having regular tests to ensure your baby isn't under any stress and the placenta is still healthy. The good news is that no matter what, you only have one week left of your pregnancy. Make sure you keep drinking lots of water and try to have a daily walk. 

Your Baby

Baby is 51.7 cm long and weighs 3597 grams. Clearly someone forgot to tell baby your due date because it doesn't seem as if he is making any moves to leave the comfort of your womb. More likely it's that baby is the only one who really knows what the plan is, and he will arrive when he is good and ready.
