Overdue 😩😩😩

Marie • Hello, my name is Marie, I'm 27 years old and I joined this website the moment I found out that I was pregnant. This is my first pregnancy and I'm praying for a 100% healthy baby boy or girl 😊
I'm just a little confused.. I'm hearing doctors won't let you go past 41w but then I see ppl going all the way to 42w... What are the risks waiting for so long?
