When a baby stays in the womb beyond the typical 40 weeks of gestation, a condition known as post-term pregnancy occurs. This can lead to complications such as decreased amniotic fluid, which can affect the baby's movement and development, and an increased risk of placental dysfunction. Additionally, larger babies may lead to more difficult labor and delivery. Medical professionals often monitor post-term pregnancies closely and may recommend inducing labor if the pregnancy extends significantly beyond the due date.
