Just had conversation with DM, and not sure if I can believe her. DSis is 38, and DM says when she was pregnant with her she went 6 weeks over her due date. Apparently midwife took implantation bleed as last period so estimated her as 6 weeks later.
Now maybe I should just believe her, no reason to lie, but this is the first time she has mentioned this, am on second pregnancy and thought it was odd that she just came out with it this eve.
Does anyone know if this sort of thing used to happen 'in olden times' :)

I guess in the days before routine scans accurate dating wouldn't have been possible for women with long/short cycles or mid cycle bleeding? It's more likely that her dates were wrong than a 46 week pregnancy I'd have thought!
