38 weeks. Told the midwife my waters were breaking and they didn’t believe me. Was nervous because for medical reasons I had to have a section and can’t give birth naturally and was so afraid of going into full blown labour

40+5 for me! Little bugger didn't want to come out 😂 I'm expecting my second now so curious to see if this one is earlier or (god forbid) later!

41 and 42 respectively.

Nursemumma92 · 05/12/2024 07:06

40 and 41 weeks for me.

Colourfulltrees · 05/12/2024 11:39

Interesting to see my were first was 38 plus 6 and second was 40 plus 5

Interesting - My son was 38+6 too! I am now pregnant with my second and I was hoping it wouldn't be late this time (i had Gestational Diabetes with my son so I don't think they'll let me go over, and I fear being induced!!) so fingers 🤞

32 weeks and 29 weeks both now over 40 years old.
Neither have ever had any illness apart from a cold, chicken pox and German measles.

angelopal · 05/12/2024 11:58

39+6, due date and 40+2

GardenersDelight · 05/12/2024 11:59

39 with first and 27 with second! Luckily she's now 30 and absolutely fine
My OH calls her our lottery win 😃

Almost identical to me! My first was dead on 39 weeks, my second was dead on 41 weeks.

My third was 41+1

Tillow4ever · 05/12/2024 12:01

To clarify, "dead on" as in spot on. I didn't consider my wording till I read it back and realised it could be read a different way, sorry! All babies were alive and well.

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 05/12/2024 12:02

40 + 6.

Peanut91 · 05/12/2024 12:05

36+4 and 39+1

QueryA · 05/12/2024 12:08

flipping 42+2! I was so angry by that point. Particularly as by calculations he should have arrived on the 5th, the midwifes/scan calculated date was the 12th and he didn't come until 28th. They started induction (pessary) on 26th. Eventually evicted on 28th. Even 10 years later I still feel the rage, I was so uncomfortable and just wanted the never ending pregnancy to end!

Stopthatplease · 05/12/2024 12:40

38+5, ended in emcs at 39 weeks.

Strokethefurrywall · 05/12/2024 12:43

37+5 - DS1
38+2 - DS2

Both early, both quick.

boulevardofbrokendreamss · 05/12/2024 12:44

31 weeks exactly with DTs

TallulahBetty · 05/12/2024 12:53

39, but I was induced, so that doesn't really count lol

sorchanim · 05/12/2024 15:28

41+2 after a sweep at 41 weeks and every trick in the book that night!

tulipsunday · 05/12/2024 15:33

42 weeks first child - two sweeps didn't do anything

Then 41+ 3 - no sweeps.

They were in no rush to come out 🤣

Shenmen · 19/06/2025 22:12

Wrong thread!

Bit to answer the question
Ds1 - 10 days early
Ds2 - on the day
DS3 - 10.very Very long days late

CaptainJason · 19/06/2025 22:15

40+5 (but waters broke at 40+2, loooong labour but partially my fault as I kept refusing intervention and eventually had an EMCS)
39+6 (lovely quick VBAC!)
