My first two babes arrived on time, one on her due date and another 2 days after, I am now 34 weeks with baby no. 3 and have been having a ridiculous amount of braxton hicks, any chance this one could arrive early?! I know they say the more active you are the sooner they arrive but this could just be an old wives tale Grin

DS1 2 weeks late
DS2 2 days late

DD - 10 days early (induced)
DS1 - 15 days early
DS2 - 6 days early

So in answer, 3rd was actually the latest out of all 3 - however I also had loads of BH with my 3rd, from about 33 weeks onwards, I was convinced he was going to be a lot earlier than he actually was...apparently third babies are very unpredictable!

DD - 1 week early
DC3 - currently 39+3

ds1 14 days early
dd2 10 days early
dd3 6 days early
dd4 18 days early

So number 3 the latest! But no 3 I was 5cm dialated and hadn't had a single contraction. A relatively easy and short birth. Sounds like you should get your bag ready. Best of luck Smile

Ds1-5 weeks early
