Hi everyone
Im so ready to meet my little boy now- im 38 weeks 4 days-
I had a bmi of 47 at booking- this is my first pregnancy- and its been a normal pregnancy
Im just wandering when you ladies with a higher bmi went into labour?
Was it early/ late-
Im booked to be induced at 40 weeks- but wandering if anyone went into natural labour early.

Thank you in advance

@Disneymad1990 my BMI was close to 40 at my 36 week midwife appointment, I went into labour at 40+2 and was just over 12 hours from waters breaking to giving birth with my first. Are they inducing you because of your BMI?

My bmi was 36 first time - no complications in pregnancy and I went in to spontaneous labour at 38 +1

This time my bmi was 39. Complications were gestational diabetes and being over 35 (🙄) went in to spontaneous labour at 39 +1
