Hi, I'm nearly 36 weeks with baby number two I was just wondering for those of you that have had two or more babies what gestation they arrived at?
My ds 22months came at 37+1 I'm hoping this one will come around the same time, but you just don't know do you!
Would be interesting to hear how it's worked out for others.

Dc1 - 42+2 (induced as well, she’d have stayed in there longer)
Dc2 - 41+6
Dc3 - 41+3
Dc4 - 41+5

Wow it's all so different!! Thanks all.
I saw the midwife the other day and she said she definitely thinks I will have baby this side of due date (I don't know why she said that) I'm clinging onto the fact she said that but I can't imagine what makes her think it!

Thats almost a cruel thing for your midwife to say as if you go to 40 weeks it'll make the last 3 weeks even worse!

DC1 - 39 + 4
DC2 - 40 + 3

Dd1, 39+6wk induced due to high bp, took 3 days
Ds, 40+5wk was 6 days labor from 1cm dilated
Dd2, 40+2wk was 2 days labor from 1st contraction
Dd3 & dd4 38wk via elcs as breech twins, they don't like twins going much further.
Hoping for vbac this time, 18+5wk atm.

Dc1 38+6
DC2 38+4
DC3 38+2 (induced due to bleed)
DC4 40+1
DC5 38+6 (induced due to reduced movement)
Hoping baby 6 is before 40 weeks but after 37 weeks and really hoping not to be induced as it hurts like hell 🤣
Good luck with your labour xx

Yes my waters went naturally at 37 weeks with my ds but they still induced me so painful! Im.hoping to avoid that this time.

Both spontaneous labours.
Currently pregnant with DC3 and have low Papp-a which can mean they come a bit early...so this one is anyone’s guess!!

Dementedswan · 21/03/2021 21:28

Dc1 41 weeks
Dc2 39 weeks

Labour with dc1 was 6 hours , Labour with dc2 was an hour from beginning to birth.

I was briefed afterwards and told any other pregnancies I would be in hospital to preempt fast birth. I tore both times.

Toomuchleopard · 21/03/2021 21:37

All 3 of mine were 6 days overdue, all spontaneous labours.
