My first two babies were late and my third was ...

[ThereMustAndShallBeTea]

Currently 33 weeks pregnant with #3. My first was 12 days overdue, second was 6 days overdue, so I've been assuming that this one will also be late and I've got ages. I know the interweb can't give me a definitive answer but would love to hear whether in general, if you've had two overdue babies, the third is likely to be late (or at least not early!) too. Think I'm just a slow cooker :)

DC1 39+5
DC2 currently 39+3 so we'll see

DD1 - 8 days late
DD2 - 11 days late
DS1 - 12 days early. He was born right at the end of August and I was in complete denial that I was in labour. Although I'd been feeling twinges all night, I packed DH off to London for a conference in the morning (2 hour train ride away). In the end my mum rang DH and told him to come home, ignoring my cries of 'I can't be in labour, it's still August!'

Baby 1 - 4 days overdue my waters broke (back to back so she ended up being born 5 days late after a 25 hour labour )
Baby 2 - 5 days overdue -lack of movement after stretch and sweep I had to be induced
Baby 3 currently 3 days to go till due date, iv had braxton hicks for months iv been feeling allot lately but nothing yet and this time I have gestational diabetes so they are keeping watch

1st- 10 days late
2nd- 8 days late
3rd- 2 weeks early

And I’ve just realised OP’s baby is turning 9 next month 🤦🏻‍♀️

First 17 days over (slow labour so eventually had the drip to speed up)
second 9 days over (slow and back to back labour)
third 19 days overdue (gave in to induction via drip as older child broke a bone while I was in for a monitoring session 😅)
