Anyone just know their baby would be early?

I knew with my first that he would be early, everyone told me he would be late. He arrived bang on 37 weeks and was a healthy 7lb 11oz.

I'm pregnant with my second and feel she will come even earlier so a little nervous.

Anyone else feel like this?

I have the opposite 😅My cervix measured 'on the short side' at 14 weeks so I freaked out I'd have a premature birth, then I was told my baby was a bit too big in the 20 week echo, but now I'm 39 weeks and no sign of labour!

I did with my second. I got my elevation date, big baby and breech, but I knew I wouldn't make that date just a pit of the stomach feeling.

He wasn't early early, 38 weeks, but 10 days before the elective date!

Convinced DD was going to arrive early, she was like Jean Claude Van damme, attempting to kick her way out.
Ended up being forcibly evicted at 40+12. She actually moved away from my cervix during induction. That way love!!!

My second was going to be early - no doubt at all in my mind. At least 2 weeks. She arrived at 40+12. Felt like I'd been pregnant for about a year at that stage 😆

DD3 - I was booked in for a C/S at 39 weeks but because she was due near Christmas it was a day or two over (Boxing Day). I said that I didn't think I would get that far and could they not do it before Christmas - nope 'fraid not. Had her on the 19th, and although a reasonably civilised affair it was still classed as a emergencey cs rather than elective.

My first was born at 37w3d and I was convinced my 2nd would be similar.. she held out to 40w5d. Felt like an eternity at the end!
Pregnant with 3rd now and not even going to think about when he or she might come

My first was born at 40+2 was convinced for the last month of pregnancy she would come early, I think I would’ve been pregnant forever if I had t had that sweep!!

currently 37 weeks pregnant, had feeling of this one being born early, was in for RFMs they check position of baby and head isn’t engaged yet, I’ve accepted I will be pregnant forever now……

Just a little update... she arrived perfectly healthy in October 2023 at exactly 37 weeks 🙌 in a mind boggling 6 minute labour xx
