I'm due baby No 3 tomorrow, and as my previous two babies arrived;

DS- 40+2
DD- 39+6

I was quite expecting to take a similar pattern. Dh's time at home is limited and so I'm just wondering if there really can be some kind of pattern. I'm becoming very impatient!

Thank you, everyone!

When I was induced they just broke my waters as I was already 4cm dilated, no need for a drip :)

All born spontaneously on the day I was meant to be induced. Me and my sisters were the same. This time I think I will just ask for an induction at 38 weeks Grin

Going by my dates, just over 38w and 39w3 days. First one I had a sweep as I was 40w by their dates, so if left to his own devices might have been different. Second one I went into labour on my own.

Not entirely sure as to accurate date. Late dating scan said due 19 Dec. failed induction on 26 Dec. Elective CS on 27 Dec. Placenta was heavily calcified so probably very late!
