When did your baby arrive compared to due date?

[ShirleyPhallus]

Am 36 weeks now and totally impatient for the baby to arrive. Realise that these things can happen at any time, but in the interests of inspiration - when did your baby arrive? Anyone had theirs on their due date?

34+2 DS(first) 36+6 DD

15 days late and only then because I was induced

But a close friend just delivered actually on her due date, so it can happen!

42 weeks but only cause I was induced - he was quite comfy chilling in my belly!

Good luck x

Dd 42 weeks, ds 38

Those that were far over / induced, did you feel like you would be late or just felt uncomfortable and like the baby could come for weeks?

DS1 40+14 (vaginal delivery)
DS2 39 (ELCS breech)
DD1 37+4 (ELCS placenta previa)

36+4 with first, 38+6 with second!

Ds 35 weeks, trust me you dont want to give birth now. DD 1 day before due date

DD (1st) was due date
DS (2nd) was 2 weeks early

42+1 my Dd was also very comfy in there. Mmm she was moving so much still and managed to turn to breech on her due date I sort of figured she'd be late. Plus my bump never dropped and head was never engaged either.
I also had a friends wedding I wanted to go to, a funeral to attend the day before - all a week after my due day so I was happy with still having my bump.

I'm pregnant again and not sure if this time I'll be as relaxed about running that late mind you.

31+6
29+6

Dc 1 40+6
Dc 2 40+3
Dc 3 42+2 induced. Other than feeling huge I didn't feel at any point he was ready to come out. I didn't feel overdue. I was supposed to go in for induction on the Weds and I just didn't go because baby was moving and I felt fine. They phoned me on the Friday and said I was at risk if I didn't go in so I did. Took until Sunday to give birth.

10 days overdue. Due date came and went and I just kind of knew that it wasn't going to be anytime soon. Nothing felt different to me until the 9th morning when labour began.

2 weeks late
My waters broke the day I was supposed to be induced and gave birth early hours of the next morning

39+1. Was a big relief because I was booked for induction at 39+6 and I really didn't want to be induced.

First - 10 days early
Second - bang on due date
Third - 5 days over

10 days late and 1 day early, I was under prepared for dc2 as I was convinced they would be late too!

DS1 - 37+5
DS2 - 32+6

42+2 via cesarean after a failed 48 hour induction. I knew he’d be late.

40+10 induced, despite a show at 37 weeks
40+7 after 2 sweeps

42+1

I was induced at 40+12 but a failed induction resulted in an emergency c-section at 42+1.

Due date was 17th July.
DS was born on the 6th July but was induced on the 3rd July.
I honestly think he would have come before his due date anyway.

DC1 39+2
DC2 40+5
DC3 39+2

DD1 37+2. I had no inkling till my waters broke.
DD2 who I was convinced would be early, was 39+5.

37+1 (induced) I'm convinced she would have come late if things had happened naturally.
