Hi there!

I am due November 28 and originally joined the Dec. moms because both my girls were well past their due dates but I am finding that I am relating to you mamas over here too so I am joining in. Anyone else due in late November? Maybe my third baby will be earlier but I'm not betting on it :LOL

Hi

Lots of us are due at the end of Nov! I am the 25-27th and there are a bunch of others with the same dd. Any of us could be oct. or Dec. anyway, so we're happy to have you!

Thanks, Mary

Hi and welcome! I am also due at the end of November. This is my first so I don't know what to expect, of course as far as the due date goes. I have read that as few as 4% of women actually deliver on their "due date".

I like just saying that I am due around "thanksgiving day" or around the end of november. I have very mixed feelings about "thanksgiving" as a holiday and all so it's kinda weird to be looking forward to it this year!

Hello and welcome. I am due Nov. 25th. It looks like a lot of us are in the same boat with end of November babies. Hopefully lots of turkeys will be popping out of the oven for Thanksgiving.

I'm due in the middle, but DH has a two generation family history of incredibly long gestation, and my oldest sibling was incredibly late, so I might be delivering in Dec.

I guess we will know when they all get here

I am so used to thinking that this baby will be past due and born in December that I will really be thrown off if I go into labor early!! My 10 year high school class reunion is the day after Thankgiving (3 days before I am due!) so I am wondering if I will even make it there??? Seems so long to wait...I am not a patient person

welcome!

Me, too. I haven't even really thought about the dd very much this time. I've just been saying 'end of Nov.' I had 3 or 4 dd's with my son and all of them turned out to be wrong (he was 3-4 wks early) so I have no idea if I gestate shorter or if that was an issue only with him!

It sure is going to be a very interesting Thanksgiving for all of us! I was so worried last time I'd have to bother the mw on Christmas Day, now I"ll be afraid to call again if it's on Thanksgiving!

Welcome!!! I'm due at the beginning of November; but end of October, beginning of December, November, what's the difference? :LOL

All my mom's babies were early (including me and I'm the first!) so I'm hoping mine at least won't be too late... I'm not patient at all and waiting 33 weeks is a long time (since I didn't find out till I was about 7 weeks along - irregular periods... and I was scared about miscarrying again). Patience is not a virtue that I'm very blessed with, but I'm working on it

Again, welcome!

love and peace.

I am due 11/29. My dd's were both "late" by 4 and 5 days respectivly. I have a feeling this one will come one or two days after my due date. It will look like I swallowed the turkey for Thanksgiving!

What a holiday season all of us will have.

My girls were 6 days and 10 days past their predicted due date and both induced (#1 for medical reasons) but I am determined NOT to be induced this time so I am not sure how long we will go. Dh was just commenting on how busy the holidays will be this year but I am thinking they will be more relaxed because I will plan ahead more and let more little less important things slide like I should do anyways

Sometimes I wonder if I can wait that long though -- I have no patience!!! :LOL

Welcome & congratulations dziejen!

I'm due 11/23 & have definitely analyzed my due date & hope this baby comes right when I want it to!! :LOL Delivering on the 23rd would be fabulous because then DP & my mom have that whole 4 day weekend off work to relax, spend time with the baby, etc. OR, I want this Turkey to come out on the 25th because that is the birthday of my beloved deceased grandma. Anytime after that would be inconvenient & not allowed! :LOL Actually, since my very biggest fear is that my labor will be super fast & my DP will be at work an hour away & it will be rush hour traffic time.... I'm seriously *hoping* little turkey pants decides to come over that 4 day weekend.

ETA: It's hard to tell what this one might do since my 1st was 5 weeks early, & my 2nd 3 days after my edd. So, who knows!

Thanks, Aubrey

I am a planner so I know what you mean!! My due date would be "ideal" but...any time "baby bean" wants to be born is when it will happen so I might as well get used to it again this time :LOL
