Amuse me as I count down the days: if you went two weeks or even more overdue first time, what happened second time?

People keep telling me it won't be as late this time, but I'm curious what others actually experienced with their second.

Two weeks over with number one, one week early with number two

1st daughter now 23 was 14 days late and I was induced , 2nd daughter now 21 15 days late again induced. 3rd daughter now 13 10 days late naturally after a sweep. Apparently I was also 14 days late as were my sisters.
I believe that's it's something to do with genes and also whether you have long monthly cycle, my periods were always 31-32 days long rather than the av 28 days.
Good luck

Spontaneous labour at 42.5 weeks, but then had another bang on time (due date) was very surprised.

First, 12 days over, second, 10 days over. They both arrived on the same date, well number not month.
