Poll: whose babies are coming early?

Tubilewicz

My baby is measuring small due to an "old placenta" and will be coming in the next week or so (between 37 and 38 weeks). Who else is having their baby early and why? Just curious....

Mine will be coming at 37 weeks also due to GD and pre-e.

Mine is still being left to nature....how did they detect the "old placenta"?

Me! I have an amnio on Friday and we're probably going to schedule an induction for next week sometimes (or Halloween if I get my way)

zivvy

Mine will, if he knows what's good for him - LOL. Officially, though, he/she's still right on schedule.

Mine if he stays breech, which his still is this morning.

I have been getting growth ultrasounds every two weeks because she has been <10th percentile since about 26 weeks...In my last couple of ultrasounds you can see holes in the placenta which make it look like a 40 week placenta rather than like a 35 week one. It's sort of like a smoker's lung (except I don't smoke). Because of this the placenta isn't functioning as it should and she's not gaining enough weight. Apparently she will be better off outside of me and breastfeeding...

Very interesting!  I am always curious as to the process of the diagnosis. I wish you the best of luck

I'm hoping against hope that he comes a little early, but as yet, everything is still pointing to new year's eve.

Doctor says I'm measuring 7-10 days ahead so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Mine will come no later than 38 weeks bc we are having twins.

Unless I go into labor, I'm having a scheduled c-section (my 3rd) around 39 weeks, so not super early.

I've been in the hospital on bedrest since 24 weeks so I'll bet Jack makes his entrance early. Just not anytime soon, I hope.

I am being induced on Wednesday morning.  It is elective but I am 39 weeks and have GD so hopefully he won't be huge. . .

Jack came at 36 weeks due to a partial abruption.

Well, I'm on bedrest now b/c my cervix is dilating, and the dr says he'll be surprised if i go to term, so, maybe mine.

There is no gurantee mine is coming early but the doctor thinks she will and so do I, so I hope she does come early in like say 2 weeks but hey you never know me and the doctor could both be wrong despite the signs.
