how often do you go into labor before the 40 weeks

pcake · January 2010

do people go into labor often before the 40... I have 39 days left... and I really dont want to wait that long. withmy daughter... I was so patient... and now with my son I am so not...I know he still have a few more weeks, but wondering if I will go before...

also he and my dd, bdays are 2 days apart.... so i would like to go a few days at least a week before to give them time... for wach of the bdays...

any ideas

You are not even full term yet so I would NOT start wishing for labor yet!

I dunno, but I am of the mind that baby will come when baby is ready...pending other health concerns.

Yesterday I either read or heard from my Dr. (can't remember which - good old pregnancy brain) that you're just as likely to give birth at 39 weeks as you are at 41 weeks. No one knows except your baby!
