First was 38+1.
Second was exactly two weeks later.

First was 2 weeks late - went into labour literally hours before induction planned. My second came exactly on her due date.

My first was at 37+3. I am currently 34+1 with no2 and hoping that this one comes anytime from 37 weeks! :-)

TaggieRR · 16/10/2016 17:38

DramaAlpaca · 16/10/2016 17:39

DC1 39+2
DC2 40+5

Those five days over with DC2 felt like the longest of my life.

UnicornPee · 16/10/2016 18:14

First 39+6
Second 41+5

OldBeanbagz · 16/10/2016 18:19

DC1 was born at 40+5
DC2 born at 39 weeks

CeCeBloomer · 16/10/2016 19:07

So general rule seems to be slightly earlier for DC2, DD came on my due date so am keeping fingers crossed around the same for DC2 as desperate for a couple of weeks mat leave first Smile feel like he is going to be earlier though

cecebloomer take nothing for granted! Dd came at 38+3 and so I was expecting this dc to be earlier. Like I was convinced! 40+3 now and still no sign Confused
