I’m pregnant with no4 and have so far never gone overdue, hopefully I won’t this time too but it is the first boy.

I was exactly 40w with my first
39+1 with my second
exactly 40w with my third

does everyone else tend to give birth around the exactly same time each labour?

My sister had hers 10 days late at 7 days late, then her third 2 days late.

my mum went late, late, due date, early.

I’m 35 weeks so not expecting to give birth anytime soon, but the Braxton hicks have been much worse this time - go figure with it being the 4th. I’ve had a few times of some that are as intense as labour was but only for an hour and they die off, usually just when I overdo it though.

I’ve not really got anything ready for giving birth yet, need to wash the car seat as it’s been in storage, wash the next to me, sort hospital bag. I’ve been procrastinating it a bit because I almost feel like this time I’ll go overdue 😂 the pregnancy itself has been crazy different to the first 3, they were a breeze and this little devil has been a tricky one to carry.

I usually give birth very fast too, 4 hours from nothing to everything done each time.
What’s everyone else’s experience been like a 4th time around?
