How close to your EDD

SilliRy · January 2013

I was induced 5 days after my due date. The induction started around 6 pm with Cervadil, and at 6 am they started pitocin. DD was born just after 7 pm, so 13 hours of labor including one hour of pushing.

My first was born on the EDD, labor was 17 hours and I pushed for 2 hours. Second was 1 week early, labor was 4 hours and I pushed 3 times. Both were medfree.

oooh. I like this thread - can we also ask the BTDT's how much time they spent in labor (active/in the hospital)? I've heard that labor tends to be longer for FTM's too?

Active labor was about 33 hours. Due to my pre-e and LO issues, I was induced at 39w. I went in and received round 1 of Cervidil(?) at 11a, had a low bishop score at 11p, had round 2 of Cervidil at that time, and finally had a bishop score of 7 at 6a. In L&D, I was at 6cm by 11A, DS was born at 749P that night. So total labor from being induced was 33ish hours, but in terms of pushing and birth, about 40 minutes from when they told me it was time to when DS was in the world.

Likely not helpful for FTMs without complications, but that was my FTM experience as HR and being induced.

DS's due date was April 18th. He came 2 days later. I was induced. I was given pitocin at 7:30 a.m. He was born at 1:11p.m.

My son was induced at 41w2d and finally came out screaming at 41w3d! I'm hoping this one comes a little earlier...

Popping in from July 2011.. EDD based on ovulation was July 21, she came July 7th. So 2 weeks early.

ETA: I was in labor for 40 hours total. Active labor for 6 hours and pushed for 1 hour.

My edd was July 9th based on lmp, but a dating u/s moved it to July 15 (I charted ovulation so this bothered me and I had a hard time believing it).

My baby still wasnt here on July 29, 2 weeks after his edd so he was induced on July 30th, 15 days late.

DS was due July 14 2009, he arrived July 14, 2009. However I went into early labour 3 weeks early which started and stopped for the full 3 weeks. Finally we tried to move him doing some positions at home on the night of the 13th. He arrived the next day (so I think he was just in the wrong position which is why the labour stopped each time). my water broke on the 14th and he arrived about 45 minutes later!
