Nothing happening?
Is anyone else nearing the end of their pregnancy but feel like nothing is happening? I'm a first time mom and 38 weeks. I figured by now I would feel maybe some cramping or tightening but nothing! I honestly feel like she could be in there for another 8 weeks. Thanks in advance for any insight ?

Be patient. A lot of FTMs go past their due date. There's not much you can do. Baby will come when it's ready.

Thanks @mollsE! I'm actually fine with her being in there and not in a rush; I just figured more action would be happening by now haha ?

My first was 4 days late and I didn't have anything besides BH until 40+2. It can happen very suddenly

I feel the same. No BH or anything, no cervix change. I know it doesn't matter but I see so many posts about all of these contractions or BH & im just a sitting duck over here.
I'm in no rush though.

I'm 38 weeks and have had no BH. I am 3 cm dilated and 70% effaced though.. I guess I've dropped too, so much pressure. I'll probably go over my due date though.

With my first I didn’t really feel random contractions until the last two weeks... and that girl went 40w10d. I think since you’re a FTM, not feeling any is pretty par for the course. My girl was engaged/low in the last few weeks before birth though, and I guess that’s more of what a first baby does, but not the rest after that.
With my second I’ve had Braxton Hicks and some real contractions since 34 weeks. ?♀️

Never had contractions until I'm at the hospital getting induced! My first my water broke 2 days before the due date. (Had no indication that was going to happen!)
2nd I got induced at 41wks.

Thanks so much ladies! I'll just keep hoping things progress and she's arrives close to her due date ??
