1st pregnancy baby was born 1 day before due date - contractions were on and of for about 4 days before, but active labor was about 10 hours and all fine

2nd baby due in june (11 LONG weeks left) I have had a terrible pregnancy and I am so fed up already. I am so uncomfortable exhausted and my sickness is still here! been signed of work numerous times with this awful sickness and been inhopsital with it had covid and just feel this pregnancy has been awful
I know lots of people are a lot more unlucky with their pregnancy and I know I should be grateful that I am bringing another beautiful baby into the world but i am just FED UP!

I walk every day and TRY to do regular exercise as I believe this will help the whole birthing process

What are the chances of 2nd baby HOPEFULLY making an appearance a few days before their due date? The thought of going over due literally makes me want to scream. I know it could well happen, but I a just curious to see who's 2nd baby made an appearance a bit earlier?

Thank you

Not me. 1st time labour started on due date, but baby didn't appear until 2 days later.
2nd time I was convinced would be early, so by the time due date came, I already felt overdue. She finally appeared 12 days later!

In my experience, no. 2nd baby was 10 days overdue, 1st was 7 days.

9 days early for me! 11 dayslate with my first.

1st baby was 4 days early but I did all the woo stuff to help- acupuncture, raspberry tea, clary sage etc.

2nd baby 2 days late but I didn't do any woo stuff.

My three were all 10-14 days late. It sucked.

thank you all, seems like a mix of experiences! I'm going to have to have my fingers crossed for a positive one without baby arriving late!
