Did you have your DC at similar weeks?

[catlady55555]

Not sure if the title makes sense. Basically if you had your first DC at say 39 weeks did your 2nd,3rd etc come at a similar time?
DH wants to book two weeks holiday after his paternity leave but he has to book it well in advance.
DD was born at 38 weeks. I wouldn't assume that would happen again. Thinking of just saying for him to book it three weeks after my due date. Just seeing if there is any correlation. TIA

Not sure yet as DC2 isn't ready to come out but all of me and my siblings came early. Youngest brother came 3 days early, me and other two were 10-11 days early.

DH and siblings were all 3-1.5 weeks late except the twins who were induced at 38 weeks. They would have kept going we reckon. "Too comfortable in there" is what they told mil each time.

I argued from the beginning that I was further along than the sonographer thought with my second. As if by magic my lb turned up on the exact day my LG did (by my dates) and one ounce between them.

Yes, pretty much. DC1 & DC3 were both born at 39 weeks and DC2 at 40 weeks.

My DM had me on my due date and my sibling two days early.

Both mine were born at 39+1. Went into labour with dc1 at 38+4 and with dc2 at 39 weeks exactly. Both ended up as emergency sections and I was told if I had a 3rd, odds on I'd go into labour before any planned section again.

Dc1 - 36 weeks
DC2. - 40 weeks
DC3 - 38 weeks

Mine did, just after midnight at 37+0 and just before midnight at 36+6.

Yes my first three were all born at 38 weeks (they all outdid each other by a days gestation) I was convinced my 4th would be the same however she came 3 days over due! So I would say no you can't every correctly predict!!

Yes, both overdue!

DS1 - 41+5 (induced)
DS2 - 41+3 (not induced)

Dc1 37+5
Dc2 36+5
Dc3 39+5
Dc4 32+5
Dc5 37+5
Dc6 37 exact
Dc7 39+2
The last 2 were awkward and ruined our pattern

Ds1 and ds3 were each 10 days early, and ds2 was 7 days early, so pretty similar.

Yes 39+6 40+0 and 40+2

Nope.

36.3
27
41.5

DD1 day before due date.
DD2 on due date.

Grateful they were punctual! ( Shame the trend hasn't continued...😁)

DS1 40+3; DS2 40+2

39+3
41 weeks exactly
40+2
38+4

1st - 41 weeks
2nd - 39+3

42wk (induced)
41+2
42wk (induced)
I'm expecting number 4 in August and am telling people he'll arrive 2 wks later. We will see if he follows the same pattern.

Yes
42+1
42+2

Yes. First 11 days early.
Second 14 days early

DC1= 39 + 6
DC2= 39 + 6
DC3= 41 weeks.

My first was 7 days late,my second was 12 days late so similar ish as in they were both late 😂

Not for me
Dc1 41+4
Dc2 40+6
Dc3 40+2
Dc4 35+3
Dc5 36+6

No! 1st and 2nd 6 weeks early, 3rd and 4th bang on time, 5th was 2 weeks early.

No. DC1 born at 41+4, DC2 35+2 (that was a surprise!) Current pregnant with DC3, I feel all bets are off!

Not quite

Dc1 40 weeks on the dot
Dc2 38+5
