You’re not overdue, you’re ‘any day now’ 💕

Hi all, i am seeing lots of posts by stressed mamas who have just reached or gone past 40 weeks (i feel the same at only 39 weeks). I have recently done a hypnobirthing course and learnt something very useful. Reaching 40 weeks of pregnancy can feel like crossing a finish line, but in reality, it’s just the start of the final stretch! Many women start stressing about being “overdue” at exactly 40 weeks, but the reassuring truth is that a normal, full-term pregnancy can last anywhere from 37 to 42 weeks. Instead of feeling frustrated, try shifting your mindset - think of 40 weeks as the moment when labor could begin ANY DAY NOW. Rather than counting the days with stress, count them with excitement! Thinking this way is helping me a lot. Your baby is on their way at exactly the right time. Stay positive, rest when you can, and trust the process—our little ones will be in our arms soon! 💕
