Did you go early or late w/#2? DS came 10 days early and for Maternity leave purposes, I kind of home the next little one is at least a day late. I know you can't control it, I am just curious waht other people's experience was.
"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasured day you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart...let me hold you while I may."
not in the least!! with DS1 i delivered at 37wk2d DS2 at 40wk2d and i was having contractions with DS2 at 30 weeks, dilated 3cm at 34 weeks. we swore he would be here wayyyy too early
No more TTC for us. We are done, and at peace, as a family of 4.

with DD1 my water broke on its own at 38w3d (we knew conception date - so this gest age was spot on). We DD2 I was in labor for weeks, literally. Finally after my third trip to triage due to 6 hours of ctx that were every 2:30 minutes at exactly 39 weeks the OB asked if I would like to be induced (rupture membranes).
So - for me - the entire start of labor experience was completely different....and shocked us as we has signs of PTL starting at 32 weeks with heavy ctx. I really think we may have drug out to 40 weeks had we not been helped along.
