40 Weeks Pregnant

If you’re like 1 in 20 moms, you will give birth on your due date.
Yep, your likelihood of delivering right on the date is 4%, according to data from the Perinatal Institute.
Whereas 60% of babies are born within a week on either side of their due date. And more than 90% are born within 2 weeks on either side of their due date.
In fact, you are statistically most likely to give birth 1 week and 1 day after your due date if you are a first-time mom.
Get the theme here? “Due date” isn't really the greatest term for what’s going on here. “Guess” date is a little more like it!
