Hey mums!
I'm 39 weeks pregnant today.

I'm just wondering how many weeks you were with your first baby when you went into labour?

Yes definitely sleep! - I remember thinking in the last few weeks of pregnancy how tired I was because I had insomnia and was huge and uncomfortable... 8 months on and he STILL WAKES AT LEAST FOUR TIMES A NIGHT Hmm

Coconutspongexo · 23/11/2017 18:44

On my due date just about (23:57) Grin.
I was induced 3 days before though due to reduced movements and other issues.

fruityb · 23/11/2017 18:45

40+3. Labour started on that day but he was born by EMCS the following morning.

Weebo · 23/11/2017 18:54

42 weeks.

He had to be dragged out kicking and screaming.

He's also still a wee procrastinator.

Weebo · 23/11/2017 18:55

But I'm sure you will be fine! :o

Gizmo79 · 23/11/2017 18:56

Dead on due date for my first!

RaeSkywalker · 23/11/2017 18:56

Induced at 37+6 due to PROM, DS was born at 38 weeks.

DramaAlpaca · 23/11/2017 18:57

Spontaneous labour at 39+2.

Xfactorstar · 23/11/2017 19:02

Bananarama12 · 23/11/2017 19:09

41+3, went in to labour the night after my 2nd sweep and it took 10 hours.

DaisysStew · 23/11/2017 19:20

Spot on 39 weeks. Contractions started about 6am, in established labour by 9. DS was here at 12:10 after only 4 minutes of pushing - my waters didn't break until the first push so I think the pressure of the waters going shot him right out 😂

Creatureofthenight · 23/11/2017 19:59

Induced at 41+2.

cocopops88 · 23/11/2017 19:59

36+3 I think my waters broke around 4am, went to work at 8.. got more uncomfortable, went to hospital at 10, gave birth at 11.41!

holdbackonthewine · 23/11/2017 20:31

40+2

annlee3817 · 23/11/2017 22:52

40+5, 5 1/2 hours from first contraction to DD being born :)

thegrinchreaper · 23/11/2017 22:56

Congratulations and good luck Flowers

mummmyj · 23/11/2017 23:00

41 weeks and 6 hours labour, if you are opting for pain relief I.e epidural make sure to put your foot down an make them give it to you mine was all natural as they didn’t do in time too busy faffing about with student Midwife’s 😲😲 Good luck an it will be fine FlowersFlowers

TidyLike · 23/11/2017 23:03

Exciting! My first was 10 days late. My second arrived on his due date.

Crabbo · 23/11/2017 23:04

36+5. Waters broke 5am, contractions about 2 hours later, she was born around midnight.

Halfdrankbrew · 23/11/2017 23:12

First baby I went into labour 39 weeks exactly haha, baby arrived the day after 39+1!

Second baby went into labour 38+6, baby arrived 39+0! My body seems to think 39 weeks is fully baked Grin.

Hopefully you aren't waiting too long op, good luck Smile.

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 23/11/2017 23:13

On my due date.

DueNov · 23/11/2017 23:13

silkpyjamasallday · 24/11/2017 07:15

RoryItsSnowing · 24/11/2017 09:44
