What happens at/after 40 week appt?

Question

Assuming I get to that appointment, what happens? Do I go in every few days at that point? Do they set an induction date? Or do I have to request that? I know every dr is different but for your run-of-the-mill American doctor's office/hospital birth, what happens? 😂

Answer

Nothing good happens After 41. I imagine they’ll discuss induction with you .
Natural induction 
-3 times for sex 
-Massage breast slow and rhythmic 
-quart of raspberry leaf tea a day 
-eat 6 dates a day 
- curb walk

Answer

My OB’s office in a normal pregnancy at 40 weeks will order a growth scan and do a non-stress test. If everything is good they ask if you are interested in an induction and schedule it for 41 weeks.

Answer

You continue to go once a week. A bit past 40 they’ll start talking about induction.

Answer

Here you’ll have your app as normal and they’ll offer you a sweep and will tell you of nothing in a few days come for another one. Then if nothing after that they’ll get induction started at 40+10
