What week was your 1st baby born?

I'm now 33 weeks and I know it's not an exact science but I'm curious to hear as I'm always told that I'll likely be overdue as it's my 1st. But I do wonder as I'm reasonably active and my cycle was less than 28 days. I'm moving house around 36 weeks, so I hope the stress of that doesn't affect anything but also the idea of going to 42 weeks fills me with dread.

Basically, are most 1st babies 40 weeks plus?

40 + 2 (but went into labour on my due date)

I really didn't think I could stand being pregnant past 37 weeks!

Booboobedoo · 12/08/2010 17:58

41+6.

You think you won't be able to stand it, but there's No Bloody Choice.

  1. No labour though, whipped out for his own good.
DingALongCow · 12/08/2010 18:21

41 weeks by the scan date. Bang on due date according to my own dates.

DS 38+4

DD came on due date.

MerryMarigold · 12/08/2010 18:38

40 weeks + 4 days. What's the average then?

ButterpieBride · 12/08/2010 18:41

36

EnglandAllenPoe · 12/08/2010 18:50

i think going to 43 weeks would be sufficient reason to be self-pitying myself!

edam · 12/08/2010 18:55

41+2 but I'd had a sweep.

bessie26 · 12/08/2010 18:59

DD arrived at 33wks 5 days. The word "unprepared" doesn't really cover it!

All those with premature babies, how are they doing now? Smile

sugarsnappea · 12/08/2010 19:11

I was very active, short cycle, builders were finishing the house - 42 weeks (just after the builders left). I think I was holding on

MiniMarmite · 12/08/2010 19:12

My cycle is short too (26 days) and I was fairly active and my first arrived at 41+3 (induced 2 days after waters broke and nothing much happened), sorry!

EmmaRoyd · 12/08/2010 19:14
