First two weeks late, I’m convinced she’d still be in there now if c sections weren’t a thing!
Second was 2 weeks early thank god!

40+11 with DD1, was induced at 40+11 due to high blood pressure. Five hour induction...

Currently 40+2 with DD2. Had a sweep this morning so we'll see!

38 weeks- Small for gestational age though but perfectly healthy. Think my placenta was giving up but they didn't check this at the time just had lots of growth scans.

Second one's (on the way) growth is being monitored and will be induced if too small.

DamnitCharlie · 24/10/2019 12:16

I mean they didn't check the placenta after birth, they check blood flow from the placenta during scans.
