37 week babies!??? How??

MrsT🇬🇧

Those who have had babies at 37 weeks, I keep seeing all these birth announcements and curious where in the world you are from???

I've actually never known anyone in my family or friends go into labour that early. So I'm curious...are you naturally going into labour or being induced or having membrane sweeps to start you off??? In the UK the midwives and Dr's wouldn't touch you until you're over due, we don't have cervix checks either unless in labour.
