April 2014 Moms

predict your delivery week

i'm going to bookmark this and post it again in may or june when we're all done expelling these children from our bellies.

based on whatever....  your birth history, your current medical state, your gut feeling, etc...  predict the gestational week when you think you'll deliver (not a week on the calendar...  i mean like 38 weeks, 40 weeks, 41 weeks, etc).  feel free to elaborate with your rationale.  if you have a scheduled c-section, this game will be far less entertaining for you to play :)

we can come back to this later on and see how close or far off our guesses are.

Re: predict your delivery week

  • 37 weeks. I was early and DH was late. I'm averaging :)
  • Loading the player...
  • I'm guessing between 40-41 weeks. I was well overdue with ds, never had contractions till labor, and while I know that doesn't predict this delivery I feel like I will still be late.

  • i guess the week before my due date (between the 39 and 40 week marks).

    rationale:

    i am a more active person this time around, given that i'm chasing an almost-4-year-old around all day long.

    i'm feeling everything earlier and stronger as a STM.  i feel the toll of activity on my body (exhaustion, BH contrax, bigger belly) moreso than with my first pregnancy.

    kiddo was born on my due date, and i want to say statistically moms tend to gestate the longest with their first baby - though that might be a load of crap i'm just making up :)
  • I predict 40-41 weeks. DD stayed in there 4 days past a failed induction on my edd, and she still had to be vacuumed out. :)

    BFP: 7/5/10   EDD: 3/13/11  Miscarriage 8/1/10 at 8 weeks

    BFP: 10/30/10   EDD: 7/7/11   Born 7/11//11 7lb12oz, 20 in.

    BFP: 7/30/13  EDD: 4/9/14 Born right on time on his due date! 8lb10oz, 21.5 in.

  • 41-42 weeks. Both of my other girls were "late". I guess I'm a long gestationer (I made that up). :)
  • 37 weeks, DS was 37w1d so here's hopeing! Unfortunetly that is in 9 weeks time eish!
  • I predict week 37. That's the week I had my son, I'm high risk for pre term labor and I'm really hoping this son hangs out as long
  • I am a FTM and I am sure everyone says this, but I'm going to guess that I go around37 weeks
  • 39 weeks...I feel like I may go early, even if only by a few days. I'm such a planner and feel like this baby will come on her own terms, ahead of time just to throw me for a loop :) we shall see! No medical influence there, just gut!
  • 40weeks 2 days just like DD aka 2 weeks late by LMP. My due date is the 8th so I'll probably go into labour on the 9th and have her on the 10th.

    But there's a good possibility that most of us at the first of the month will deliver in March thanks to the new moon and the caboose ladies in May. The Full Moon is April 13th FYI ladies
  • We haven't scheduled our c-section yet but I think the dr will shoot for the 37th week. I'm hoping to schedule soon so I can start really getting ready.
  • Week 41. I'm actually hoping to make it till the first few days in May... we already have 4 April b-days in our family and I don't want to come back from leave until after July 4th lol

  • 41 weeks. I'm a ftm but my mom says I was two weeks late so I think I will go past 40 weeks.
  • This is fun :) I'm thinking I'll be late.. I'm due 4/17 but I've always felt like I'll deliver sometime after 4/20 and have a Taurus instead of an Aries. So 41 weeks is my official guess!

  • 41 weeks. This is my first and we are all so anxious I'm sure we'll be forced to wait a little longer. Zero logic involved.

  • My guess is between 40 and 41 weeks. Both of my previous kids were born 40 weeks 1 day.

  • 39 weeks. I had my son at 38 weeks 4 days, but I'm feeling better this time around. I think I'll make it a few days longer (at least I hope... it would work better with my job)! :)

  • 39 weeks given I already have high bp.

    Now we are complete.

  • I say week 38. I don't think I'll make it to 40 for whatever reason.
  • I'm hoping for 37, but I'm not sure I'm gonna make it that far. Fingers crossed!!!
  • I think 41 weeks. My edd was moved earlier 5 days at my anatomy scan so I think she'll make me wait that extra week just to be a tease! Plus I've always heard your first pregnancy tends to go past due most of the time. Plus I can't fathom her getting her any earlier than 11 weeks from now. So soon!
  • I am going to guess 40 weeks, because A) I refuse to stop believing I will go full term this time and B) if I do go full term they will probably want to RCS me unless I go into labor in my own before 41 weeks. Either way I am pretty sure I will have a baby before 41 weeks. So yeah, guessing 40 to account for possible RCS as well as labor.

  • My DD came 2 days before her due date so i am going to guess 39 weeks sometime. Maybe 38 because i have been having a lot of contractions and cramping this time around.
    I will probably be totally off and give birth at 41 weeks. :/

  • My guess is 41, since I think I ovulated later than LMP (charting)

    But I hope it's more like 39!!

  • I am thinking 38 weeks. My gyno told me a few years ago I most likely wouldn't carry to term because I had a leap procedure and would deliver prob 2 weeks early.... So just going off of that, not that his guess is very accurate!

  • I think between 40-41. I was 3 weeks late, my EDD based on LMP was March 25, it go bumped to April 1 based on ultrasound so I'm giving myself a week.

  • 39 weeks. I was a week and a half late with my son but with my irritable uterus and the fact that Im already starting to open up a bit- I think I'll go a little early this time.

  • I'm going to say 38.DD was 38 weeks 6 days.
  • 39 weeks. 39 weeks, 3-4 days to be exact. DS was born on his due date exactly and subsequent pregnancies tend to be shorter. And my mom carried my younger sister a few days shorter than she carried me. And I just KNOW this. :)

  • If he doesn't get stuck breech (I have a septum in my uterus and DD got stuck breech because of it), I guess right around 40 weeks. I hope I'm right because I can't attempt VBAC after 40w4d so there definitely is an expiration date!

  • I'll say 41 weeks, since I've heard that's average for FTMs. 

    Though with all these BH contractions, it scares me he'll come early. I'm a weird FTM and I want my baby baking nice and long. I feel like if he goes over a little, he will be more likely to be nice and chubby and healthy :)

    I hear that I may regret that hope by the time I get to 40 weeks!

  • Im going to say 41 weeks

    Just because everyone always tells me that first children are usually late - and any later than that I have to be induced (no thanks!)

  • I'm going with 38 weeks. DD was 4 days early so I'm thinking this LO will be even earlier.

  • 38 weeks 6 days. I will be having a RCS, but haven't scheduled it yet. So it's kind of a guess.
