My daughter was born 2 days before her due date. I'm curious if this one will be late or early. I know you can never really tell, but I'd love to get a general consensus from other moms of 2 or more who've had 2 non-induced births.

My first was born on his due date, my second was 2 days over due. I am curious to see when my next will appear and hoping for another home waterbirth.

All of mine I went into spontaneous labor. According to u/s edds the first I had the day before edd, the second on his edd, and the third the day after edd. According to my charting dates with #2 and #3 the second was about 2 days after edd and the third was 3 days before edd.

My first and second were on their due dates. My third was a week later, but my dh was unexpectedly out of town...she was born at 41 exactly...two days after he got back.

I'm really curious if this baby will come on its due date. That would be before tomorrow night...

My first was 4 days early and my second was 10 days early. He came less than 24 hours after my last day of work. Little bugger.

Both were born on the due date given by the first ultrasound I had. Im curious to see if the trend continues with this one, if it does he/she will be born on Feb 6th. I guess my body likes to plan as much as I do

DC#1 was 37w6d
DC#2 was 38w1d

Not pregnant now but I'm wondering how the third will be. With my luck 42+ weeks

first was 38+6
second was 39+6

I think it's also worth mentioning that with my first, I was crazy anxious about meeting my baby as soon as possible. With my second, I wanted her to bake as LOOOONG as possible to give me more time to enjoy 17 month old DS being an only child. I really do have to wonder how much of a role my feelings played in how long each baby gestated
