STMs: How did delivery date compare second time?

KristinB! · September 2013

I know it every pregnancy and delivery are different but I'm getting really impatient waiting for LO #2 to arrive. DS arrived 4 days past my EDD and so far, this LO will be at least a week late (I'm 7 days past EDD tomorrow). Ugh.

Just curious about others' experiences... even though I know that will have absolutely no impact on when my LO decides to make his/her appearance.

DD was born on her own at 39 weeks and one day. Four hours from water breaking to delivery. Med free.

DS came on his own after a membrane sweep at 41weeks 2 days. 12 hour labor. I got the epidural at 9cm.

So my two experiences were very very different. I sympathize with going over due, but it could happen at any time for you. Good luck. Wishing you a safe, happy delivery.

DS was 41 weeks 1 day. DD was 41 weeks. Both times my water broke as the first sign of labor beginning.

No advice, but from someone who was a week overdue I can relate and I hope your LO comes soon!

My water broke with DD early in the morning at 39w3d (had her that night), and had DS at exactly 38w (required RCS, and started going into labor then--3cm dilated and fully effaced), so early and earlier for me!

DS#1 was born at 38w 2 days and DS#2 was born at 37w 5 days. Both of my deliveries were fast- but my second was way faster!

My first baby came at 34 weeks 1 day. That labor was LONG.

Second arrived at 39 weeks and 1 day. That labor was quick! I was surprised I even went that long because he was measuring 2 weeks ahead. Big baby boy...

Late and induced with both of mine

First baby born one day after EDD. Second baby born one day before EDD. So a little earlier but not much!

All three were early, but not that early.
DD1 I went into labor at 39 weeks and three days. I labored for two days before she was delivered with forceps. She was born at 39 week and five days. She was 6 pounds 11 ounces
DD2 was the exact same, but she turned into an emergency c-section at 39 weeks and five days. She was 7 pounds 2 ounces.
DD3 was a scheduled repeat c-section. I didn't make it. She was born at 37 weeks, three hours after my water broke, completely naturally. My doctor got there and I was 10. He gave me the option of a v-bac. She was six pounds 3 ounces.
