They are not done in every single visit, usually only towards the end of the 9th month to see if the cervix is opening. If your doctor suggests it, just take deep breaths and relax your body, it makes the process much simpler and less uncomfortable.

According to medical calculations, 40 weeks is equivalent to 280 days, which is exactly 9 calendar months and 7 days. My doctor told me that full term is considered anywhere between 37 and 40 weeks, so don't expect the baby to arrive exactly on the due date.

Oh absolutely, hormonal changes are so intense during this time, especially after all the injections. I had quite a few breakouts during my IVF pregnancy journey. It's totally normal, so try not to stress too much about how your skin looks right now.
