I've had

1 due date baby
2 due date minus one
3 due date plus one

So am very intrigued as to what this one will do!!

FWIW, I have completely clockwork 28 day cycles (despite having polycystic ovaries)

thanks all- very interesting! my braxton hicks are painless but quite strong.....the thought of feeling like this for even a few days let alone weeks.....eeesh........i feel about a hundered.

DS induced early so doesn't count (39+4)
DD1 - 40+6
DD2 - 40+6
DC4 - due May 2010

DD#1 40+12
DD#2 40+8
DD#3 39+5

dd1 40+4
dd2 40+10 (but they moved my due date earlier even though I was very sure of dates. On original due date I would have been 40+3)
dd3 due 2nd Feb 2010 (so I'm thinking it will come around the 6th!)

DS 40+1
DD 40+1
DD due March 2010

ds1 - 40+6
ds2 - 40+9 - wish I'd never read the thing about 1st babies usually being more overdue - doesnt seem to be the case in loads of people's experience.

i had a similar 2nd time start of labour to MumNWLondon - BH for about three weeks before it kicked off properly. had a sweep too and was already a few cm dilated on the Tuesday, but still didnt have ds2 till the Sunday.

Sorry if I sound bitter - hope yours makes an appearance before too long.

DS - Due date.
DD - 40+7

DS1 40+6
DS2 40+10 (eek!)

28 day scyle - like clockwork!

DD 40 + 2
DS 40 + 4

re: 2nd labour, had BH on and off for 2 weeks, culminating in a friday/sat when every time I stood up/walked anywhere had one pretty much every 10 minutes, but sometimes 15. But stopped when I sat down. By the Sunday I was 40+ 3 and totally fed up. Went to the gym in the morning, had a work out AND took DD swimming, then went for a walk on Hampstead Heath. BH throughout (was being very active!) After about hour of walk, noticed that contractions started to be a little uncomfortable, and very regular every 10 mins. Even when i went home contactions continued but no show until 8pm, by 10pm went to hospital. DS born at 6 minutes past midnight hence 4 days late rather than 3 days!
