For those of you who are pregnant and already have children.. when did your first baby arrive compared to the others? My first DC was a week late, hoping this time it's a bit sooner!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Sorry that should have read for those of you who have more than one child!

1st two weeks late & then had to be induced/ c section
2nd came 2 weeks early natural birth
Fingers crossed you don't go overdue

TimeWoundsAllHeals · 22/11/2018 22:30

My first was 42 weeks on the dot. Second 41 weeks on the dot. Maybe if I have a third it will be born on its due date.

All good so far! @StartingAgain1 thank you, fingers crossed!

1st - 2 days early. 2nd - 9 days late by hospitals dates, only 1 day by my dates.

Dc1 37 bang on
Dc2 35 bang on
Dc3 39+5 (kept trying from 25 weeks though)
Dc4 38+3 (but in latent labour from 36 weeks)
Dc5 38 bang on (even longer latent labour that started just before 35 weeks, I was induced in the end due to complications)

Dc3 was my easiest labour, biggest baby too 6lb 13oz so not really that big.

Interested in this thread, DS came bang on 37 weeks although waters broke 2 days prior. Really want this next one to be later!

DS - 35+5
DD - 41+1. We had been prepped since 34 weeks!

TiggeryBear · 23/11/2018 20:52

DC1 - ELCS at 38+1 following a failed induction at 37+5 due to pre eclampsia
DC2 - EMCS at 35+2 following my waters breaking at 35weeks exactly. I was supposed to be booking my C-section for 39weeks the morning my waters went.

JellycatElfie · 23/11/2018 20:53

Baby 1 - 40+1
Baby 2 - I am 40 today!!!

BikeRunSki · 23/11/2018 21:00

Dc1 - 36+5
DC2 - 39 + 0. Those last 2 weeks were mental anguish!

Eeeeek2 · 24/11/2018 07:59

onemoremummy · 24/11/2018 08:34

DC1 - 42 weeks (induced)
DC2 - nearly 42 weeks, I went into labour two days before induction after begging the midwife for a 2nd sweep after the first failed.

RiverMeadow · 24/11/2018 18:33
