No, sorry! 7 days late but the other 3 were all late too so may just be me!

Dc1 10 days late
Dc2 10 days late
Dc3 4 weeks early
Dc4 3 days late
Dc5 2 weeks early
Currently 31+5 with dc6 and I'm hoping for an early one as I have truly had enough of being pregnant

Sheer willpower. And massive amounts of EPO.

Oh no 3currants - you still pregs? Crap isn't it?

I could have written your post 20 weeks ago but YES ds4 came 11 days early - the others were late or bang on their dates. I made sure I didn't sit down and worked up to the day I gave birth- was literally having mild contractions during meeting - think it helped.

My first three were early or on time. My fourth had the damn cheek to stay in there until induced 11 days late!!!

Luckily the whole pregnancy did fly by so I wasn't actually climbing the walls too much.

Oh and from having my waters broken to baby being born was only 5 hours so can't complain about that!

Still haven't forgiven him yet though

The cheek 11days that is not on ;)

Mind you I'm not actually organised yet so should watch what I say really. Think I can get sorted by 37weeks though :)

Dc4 was 4 days late, although went into labour on eda and midwife came out to inspect! She was so horrid, my body shut down for 4 days until the nice friendly midwife was on call again! Although that meant slow labour for 4 days....wasn't too bad! Was a great birth at home as I'd wanted it
