Poll- when did you deliver LO?

iristony · June 2012

Just curious- a friend was saying that everyone she knows goes late (except for me) and I wanted to show her that people go early too- ha ha.[Poll]

I was induced the day before my due date and had LO the day after my due date

I was induced at 37 weeks so maybe I shouldn't have done the clicky, I didn't read your text until after lol. People definitely go early; my mom had us all between 3 and 6 weeks early and wasn't induced.

Three weeks early- naturally! There is hope!

DD was born on her exact due date. I went into labor at 4:44 am on her due date and she was born at 4:43 pm.

The OBGYN went with my due date over the one that was determined using the ultrasound (I think there was 1 week difference between the 2) because I was using the Clearblue Easy ovulation predictor kits and was really confident of when she was conceived.

4 days late.

5.5 weeks early

CopperT0p · June 2012

40 weeks and 6 days, a couple hours before 41 weeks, so I just voted 41 weeks.

I went into labour on my own (water broke, then some contractions started). I had to have a c-section because he was breech and had a huge head.

I know that people do deliver earlier, but most people I know who did deliver early were induced or had a scheduled c-section for one reason or another.

I went into labor on my own with all three of my children. My boys were both 40 weeks/1 day, and my daughter 34 weeks/6 days.

I was induced and had DS was I was 41 weeks

TiffanyBerry · June 2012

The average length of gestation is 41w 1d for first time, low-risk moms. So, yes, if left to their own devices, most women "go late", but that's only because the magical 280day thing was made up by a man who didn't gather very good data in the first place.

Went into labor on my own 3 days late. Had her 4 days after my due date. I would have been induced at 41 weeks if I hadn't gone into labor on my own. I was very happy I didn't have to be induced.

NewFamily09 · June 2012

That's funny. Most of my friends and I have gone early. I had both my babies early. My best friend had all 3 of her kids early (I'm talking just like a week or two, not premature). I don't know many people who went past their due date.

Had DD 3 days before her due date.

SuperThat1006 · June 2012

DD - 38 weeks

DS - 37 weeks 5 days

I think I'm a fast gestator Wink

katlizabeth · June 2012

I was 38 weeks 4 days with my first. 39 weeks 6 days with my second.

I had mine at 37 weeks exactly...but I had twins and was induced. It was good timing too because DS was 7lb3oz and DD was 5lb10oz and neither needed any NICU or other intervention.
