Please say yes :)

My previous arrived at 39weeks,39plus6 and 39plus 2.

I'm 32 weeks and praying I don't go over.

My boys arrived at 28 weeks, then DD at 39+5, DS3 at 39+2 and DD2 38+4.

But dd2 was a planned csec, so i guess that doesn't count...

First 41
Second 41+1
Third 41
Forth and fifth induced at 38 weeks they looked very early covered in vernex etc so I think I would have gone 40 plus weeks again

DC 4 was my longest pregnancy by 5 days. Sorry Grin

threecurrantbuns · 29/02/2012 13:14

Nooo don't say that ;)

This is my fourth in 5 years so hoping my body can't hold it to term, would be fab to turn 37 weeks and miraculously go in labour lol

DS was an induction at 40 weeks in the dot but it was so fast that everyone reckoned I would have gone in the next 1-2 days.

DD1 37+5, DD2 41+5 DD3 40+5

I'm hoping my dc4 will arrive earlier too - 35 weeks at moment and starting to get v.uncomfortable DC1 - 40 wks, DC2 induced at 41+4, DC3 induced at 42 wks......not very hopeful is it!

Four4me · 29/02/2012 15:32

Sorry, my dc4 was the longest too. Didn't make my due date though

Ds1 -35weeks
Ds2 -37weeks
Dd1 -39weeks
Ds3 -39w +3 Grin the longest three days of my life!!!

Best of luck. I love having four.

Thank you, very excited but also slightly concerned about how I'll juggle 4 under 5 :)

I had four under 6. It's very hard work but great fun Grin

Threecurrantbuns - I am in the same boat, 31wks with DC4 DS1 had his 5th birthday at the end of Jan and wondering if I've bitten off more than I can chew! Tired, spd, lowish iron threatening my 4th HB and not planning to do this again, trying so hard not to hope for a 37weeker!

CODwidow · 01/03/2012 18:28

Hiya, sorry but dc4 was my longest by 3weeks! Sorry :/

toodles · 01/03/2012 18:34

dc4 was 41 weeks, sorry. Good luck and hope s/he comes on the early but safe side for you.

Lollyheart · 01/03/2012 18:35

Dc1 40+2
Dc2 38 weeks
Dc3 39 weeks
Dc4 40+ 4 Grin

Kveta · 01/03/2012 18:37

my mum had 4 - 37, 39, 40+1, 38 weeks in order :)

Fresh01 · 01/03/2012 20:06

Sorry no here as well. Had 3 false starts to labour as well including 3 hours on Xmas eve with contractions 5 mins apart then it all stopped!

Dc1 40 weeks
Dc2 40 +5 induction
Dc3 39
Dc4 40 + 5 induction

I had 4 in 6 years and dc4 is now 9 weeks old. Yes it is busy and the washing never ends but she has slotted into the family. The other kids love her to bits even DS who just turned 2. She is breast fed on demand but is my fastest feeder and within 3 weeks seemed to sus out when I was sat down and chose to feed then like just after girls went to school/preschool in morn (sister in law was taking them as she was taking her own anyway) at lunchtime when DS slept etc. so far the thought of 4 has been much worse than the reality.

oooggs · 01/03/2012 20:14

Ds1 was 36+4
dd & ds2 were 38 but induced
Ds3 was 38+4

When ds3 was born ds1 had just turned 5 and dts were 21 mths
