When did you go into labour

[wonderings]

So I'm 40 weeks today with DD2 and SO ready to give birth.
When did you go into labour/give birth?

First contraction 39w 6d and 23h!

Gave birth next day - so 40 weeks

Good luck!

Ds1 40+4 (after a not so gentle sweep from my midwife), my waters broke on the way for a reduced movement check and he arrived 4 hours later.
Ds2 induced at 40 + 5 at 12pm, full labour by 6pm and baby arrived at 10.30.

Good luck Op, I hope it all goes smoothly for you.xx

First baby ... went in to labour at 40+5 following a sweep and then gave birth 40+10

Sweep at 40+5 (was already 4cm it turned out!), went into labour the next morning, born that evening.
This is an amazing website for the statistics around when people give birth if you are interested spacefem.com/pregnant/charts/duedate0.php

37 +4 with ds 1

42 weeks

Dc1 41+3 weeks
dC2 42 weeks following 2 sweeps

1st one at 41 weeks
2nd one, I went 10 days over, midwife couldn't perform a sweep. Fast forward 8 hours to find I had placenta previa (was missed at the ultrasound) so I was rushed in for an emergency c-section.
I so wish I got to go through labour like my 1st though

Good luck with your little baby

40+4 baby no.1- spontaneous
42 weeks with baby no.2 - induced
39+3 with no.3 - induced

Dc2 first pains started 39+6 but arrived 40weeks

Dc3 40+1 I had no signs or feelings at all it was gonna happen soon on 40.

(Dc1 was early 36+6 via csection due to pre eclampsia and breech)

This was my first:
Week 39+6 went for week 40 midwife appointment and was booked in for sweep the following week.

However, contractions started sporadically the next day and by 11pm ish became regular.

Baby born the next evening so 40+1.

I was 39 weeks and 5 days and he arrived 24.5 hours later a day early

38+2 with number one. 6hr Labour from waters breaking (first contra action I rely came after)

39+6 with number two. 4hr labour from waters breaking - same build up as Time before.

Good luck OP

Got to term and waters broke at 37 weeks exactly. He was a very punctual baby

Induced at 40+10, born at 40+11. Two midwife sweeps which did sweet FA but only needed the pessary.

Good luck OP, such exciting times to come but appreciate you might be feeling fed up now, so for you!

5 days before my due date with my first and my due date with my second. The nurse said while I was in getting a check up few days before baby arrived was to ‘jump on him’ (her words) to get things moving, though when your heavy baby low down in pelvis and just fed up waitin on baby to arrive sex is last thing on women’s minds.

41+4 - after second sweep.

All the best for your birth, nearly there now x

34+6 for labour, Emcs next day

39 + 2. Had a sweep at exactly 39 and went into labour two days later. Gave birth on 39+3

40+12. Had a sweep at +7 which did precisely nothing but disappoint me. Booked for induction at +11, only needed the peasary and she arrived early hours of the next morning. I was SO ready for her to arrive!

Peasary? Not sure I like the sound of that.

pessary

41+2 (at around 12:15am). DD was born 39 hours later so 41+3.

41+5 DD finally made her appearance!

DD 40+2 Just before midnight contractions started, arrived the next morning

Hope the LO doesn't keep you waiting too long OP! Those two days felt far too long 😓

Still waiting. ..currently 11 days overdue
