DD was 2 weeks overdue and I eventually went into labour the day I was due to be induced. I'm now 38 + 4 with number 2 and wondering if I'll go over again. Just wondered what other peoples' experiences were.

I agree it is totally unpredictable - dd1 was 2 weeks late, ds a week early and dd2 was 5 days late. Have to say, a curry worked with my first 2 - felt sorry for the widwives tho lol!

Yes, was very overdue with both.

DD 10 days late. DS born at 36+4. Was not ready......

DS1 14 days late (went into labour the night before induction), DS2 exactly on time (labour only lasted 4 hours so glad we left for the hospital when we did!).

DS (1st) - went into labour at 40+5, he arrived 7 days overdue.

DD - she was 10 days late - much quicker labour though (3.5 hours).
