Apparently only 5% are born on due dates. The general consensus is first babies are ALWAYS late, so just wondering......

12 days late, the morning I was due to be induced

CordeliaScott · 08/07/2015 17:33

DD was 10 days late

Blueskies80 · 08/07/2015 17:42

Dd was 16 days early by hospital edd or 11 days early by my dates, due early sept and born mid aug! a small 5lb15. Quick labour too, so we confounded all the standard assumptions.
19 months later, Ds was 5 days late and a big 9lb3!!

34+6. We don't know why he came so early.

GoooRooo · 08/07/2015 18:43

37+1 waters went. DS born 37+3. It was three loooong days.

Now pregnant with DD and hoping I give birth somewhere between 37 and 40 weeks!

broomy123 · 08/07/2015 18:46

12 days late after a induction and then dragged out! Most people I know seem to go over a bit. By five days over the due date I was well and truly fed up and annoyed at myself for thinking it would come on time Smile

ThatsNotEvenAWord · 08/07/2015 18:49

1 day early

Pigeonsaregreedy · 08/07/2015 18:54

DD was born on due date.

MrsMonkeyBear · 08/07/2015 18:55

My DD was 8 days late. It felt like she was never going to arrive but she's now 8 months old

Eatsleepteach · 08/07/2015 18:57

Waters went on due date, born 2 days later.

LazyRohazy · 08/07/2015 19:00

3 weeks early. I was sort of expecting it because no woman in my family goes more than 2 weeks early. (Gran, mum, aunt, two sisters - no one's got closer than 2 wks early).

LostSoulsForever · 08/07/2015 19:06

1 day late, although started getting twinges on my due date.
Next one due next week & hoping she puts in an early appearance!

RabidFairy · 08/07/2015 19:23

all of my babies were late (3 of them). DC1 was the least late though at 9 days overdue.

LaceyLee · 08/07/2015 19:25

10 days late

bluejeanswhiteshirt · 08/07/2015 19:27

1 week late.

polarbearshuffle · 08/07/2015 19:29

13 days late. Went into labour 11 days over.

Sighing · 08/07/2015 19:29

38 weeks. Spot on (as was 2nd as it happens).

hopingforsleep · 08/07/2015 19:53

15 days after edd, although induction started on 12 days and if hospital hadn't left me for 21 hours before actually breaking my waters after saying I was ready it would have been 14

newbian · 08/07/2015 20:47

I haven't had mine yet but I was a first baby and 5 days early. My mom is certain I'll deliver a week earlier than my EDD.

LillyBugg · 08/07/2015 20:50

37+3. Never thought he'd be that early. But he was 7lb 11oz. Thank god he was early can you imagine...
