Fiancé 40 weeks over due

Yesterday (06/02/2023), my fiancé and I went to Rahima Moosa Mother & Child Hospital to have her pregnancy induced. But she was told to return in a week. She is 40 weeks and two days pregnant. I'm worried about my unborn child and my fiancé's health. I did some research and am dissatisfied with what I discovered. Everything seems to indicate that being pregnant after 40 weeks is extremely dangerous. This will in some way harm the baby. Could you please help us with this? I am concerned and worried. Because of this situation, my fiancé is anxious and stressed. I urgently require the assistance of someone.
