My first baby came on his due date. 40+0.
My midwife said that gestations are usually about the same give or take a day or two.
I'm wondering what other mums experiences are with second babies. Were they born around the same point of the pregnancy or was there a week or two (or more) in the difference?
My mum arrives to take care of DS when I'll be 37+5. I just hope I make it that far as my other childcare options are far from ideal. We don't have family close by and both my friends that I've asked agreed but their situations are far from ideal (one has a special needs child, the other has 3 kids with another on the way) so I really don't want to depend or impose on them.
So, were your pregnancies about the same length?

How many days in the difference between when your first and second labours started?
