Over Date
Does anyone know how long a doctor will let a woman go over her due date?
I want to know how long a doctor will typically let a woman go over her due date before inducing her. I have asked to be induced twice already. I will be seeing my doctor for my second stress test tomorrow at the 41 week mark. My doctor also knows that with hyperemesis and my being in school full time; the pregnancy has been miserable for me. My husband lost his job in December and so I had to start back in school to finish my last semester in early January.
Doctor stripped mebranes last week at 40 weeks, but still nothing. I am a fingertip dilated with the cervix soft. I just get the feeling that this baby is not going to come all on her own before the 42 week mark, and I am extremely ready to be done with the uncomfortableness and daily vomitting.
Thanks for all of the input. Some of you mentioned that what pregnancy it is might make a difference. This is my 2nd pregnancy. I had twin girls 7 years ago!
My doctor said up to two weeks over your due date… as long as the “stress tests” came back showing the baby was doing fine.
