If you did IVF when did baby arrive?

[BiscuitLover3678]

if your baby came naturally ie without early induction or c section, when did he or she arrive? Stats say ivf babies are often early but I think that’s because loads of places do early inductions and c sections.

I ended up having a c section but went into labour naturally at 38+5.

Oh wow! Any signs he/she would be early? First baby?

@BiscuitLover3678 it was a challenging pregnancy and I genuinely don’t think my body could have coped with another week or two! Yes first baby.

I've had 2 IVF pregnancies, both arrived at 38 weeks exactly, spontaneous labour. I was meant to be induced at 39 weeks with my first and 38 weeks with the second but they both decided they were in a hurry to arrive ahead of schedule!

2weeks early
3weeks early
4weeks early
2weeks late (without ivf)

40 + 2

Induced at 42 weeks

Oh wow! What were your reason for IVF if you don’t mind me asking?

41 weeks
40 weeks

Induced at 42 weeks. He was not keen to come out.

@BiscuitLover3678 I have PCOS and don’t ovulate much. We tried IUI first but no luck. IVF worked well for us.
