A member asked:
My friend is pregnant and was due over a week ago, but she hasn't given birth or gone in labour, is it normal? is the baby okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Pregnancy beyond 40 weeks, called post-term pregnancy, is very normal. Many women have to be induced into labor. She should definitely not go past 42 weeks due to increased risk of fetal demise and other problems.
