I'm 34 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child, my 1st was 9 days overdue, What are the chances of this one coming early?? This time it's a girl, my 1st is a boy. She is already engaged 3/5ths (that was last wednesday I think she has gone further down as I'm finding it easier to breath and harder to walk) I have a gut feeling she will be early.

What are your thoughts??
Thanks

How long is a piece of string?

Honestly a baby comes when it's ready and unless you've been given indication by your midwife/doctor that your baby might be early you should assume that it'll be around the due date.

I dropped with both my DC's weeks before giving birth. In fact I was 36 weeks when a bra fitter in John Lewis told me I should go home there that instant as my bump was so low she said I could give birth at any time!
I had my DS 6 weeks later - 2 weeks late!

DS1 was a week early after 2 days of very slow early labour.

DS2 was 4 days late and still high when labour began.

DS3 was 3/5 eng. for the last 2 weeks or so and he came 4 days late too.
