Pregnant with my first. I know everyone is different, however am curious to know...

...when did your first arrive? I'm hoping for 40 weeks but not to go too far overdue. Fingers crossed!

First daughter arrived at 27 weeks

ChanklyBore · 19/08/2018 12:01

42 weeks, 4 days.

I was just as uncomfortable at 32 weeks as I was at 42 weeks - ie extremely. Everyone here who is pregnant has my sympathies,

And i felt fine btw. Regularly went to the gym until 40 weeks then last 2 and a half weeks I was just walking the dog twice a day for 2-3 miles at a time.

Husband wasn't pleased I was off on long walks while he was at work 🤣 but the only thing that I found frustrating was the boredom and needed to get out the house

40 exactly :) I didn't find the end of pregnancy uncomfortable at all but I did have a bump that was measuring five weeks behind so that probably had something to do with it. DS came out bang on the 50th centile. I have a long torso so I think he went up rather than out as he grew Grin

40 +10 (vaginal), no bother)
39 + 1 (urgent cs)

Nothing "works". Not raspberry leaf tea or bouncing around or pineapple or curry or shagging. Those things might work to speed it once you've started but they won't do bugger all to get you going ime. Book a hair appointment or something. That'll work!

Labour started 6am 41 weeks exactly

DD born 11.15am 41+1

DeadDoorpost · 19/08/2018 23:23

40+9 and wasn't really uncomfortable. But then I had a small baby and a small bump and could still breathe in and look not-pregnant...

The second was over 10lbs and they assure me it’s because he went over, as all the others were a normal size!

Pickledgerkingsareathing · 19/08/2018 23:41

First was day after due date but was induced !
I will be 37 weeks in 20minutes and I'm honestly counting down 😩
