How accurate was your due date?

RachelCA29 · June 2014

I have been curious about this for a while, but thought I should wait well after the May babies were due/born. At the beginning of our pregnancies so many of us asked STMs how accurate their due dates were. Now we can kind of see overall how accurate May EDDs were. So ... when did you have your baby?

Water broke at 40w3d and labor did not start at that time so I was induced.

Went into labor and delivered 1 day after my due date.

gutsysneakers · June 2014

I picked after 40 weeks but it was still a few days after my EDD.

bridetobe9132013 · June 2014

My husband and I dtd 2 days before my due date which put me in early labor for 3 days, then I went in to have my water broken to induce and had her 20 hours labor via c section after pushing for 2 hours.

sparklingdiamond · June 2014

Nolan was born 5 days before my due date, so pretty close!

DBonfante · June 2014

Had baby on the 21st naturally (not induced/not c) and was due the 23rd.

spacepotatoes · June 2014

LO came exactly one week before my due date. I know the date was accurate, though, since I was temping and was monitored by the fertility clinic up until 8 weeks.

Sam0905 · June 2014

I had an induction planned at 37w d/t pre-e and baby was SGA. Ended up having a c section bc baby was breech and wouldn't turn despite 2 ECVs!

lrmrtn · June 2014

LO came 3 days before my EDD on his own. I think my EDD was pretty accurate because I was measuring on target and my cycles are pretty regular.

AlexWelch922 · June 2014

LO csme 9 days before due date. DH and I really believed my date should have been moved up but Dr. stated she did not agree and would not change date. She also indicated that based on weight he would possibly arrive 1 week or so after. Not the case. Went into labor late on Mother's day and had him at 1am the next morning.

Hallil · June 2014

My due date was accurate as I knew through charting when I got pregnant. However, baby still came 11 days late.

chillypenguin · June 2014

She was born at 37w2d after my water broke and I went into labor. I know my dates were accurate because I was charting and had an early ultrasound. I was surprised she came that early (DD1 came one day before her due date).

mfosburgh · June 2014

Due date was 5/21. Was induced for a slow leak (ruptured sac) on 5/10 had LO on 5/11.

ho11yday · June 2014

I went into labor 12 days after my due date with DS2 (no induction) and 10 days after my due date with DS1 (induction).

jenb_99 · June 2014

I had a planned c-section 6 days before my ultrasound due date, 10 days before the EDD I got from charting.

RedInLove · June 2014

I went into labor and gave birth on my ovulation-based EDD (I temped, OPK'd, charted), which was 2 days after my dating u/s EDD. I've always gone by my O-based EDD.

QOTR · June 2014

Went into labor at 41 weeks and he arrived just after midnight at 41 weeks, 1 day.

usernewname · June 2014

DS came one week and one day early 38+6 weeks.

I measured one week ahead the whole time, both in ultrasounds and fundal measurements and my MW said my placenta looked older. So I guess it was the right time.

CMDR513 · June 2014

I went into labor (water broke) on my own 5/2 (had her VBAC 1 hr shy of 38 weeks). The RCS was scheduled for the 12th. EDD was 5/17 (my calculations were about that).

cindythelou · June 2014

Went into labor 5/19 and she came on her due date 5/20!

equestrianmom · June 2014

Delivered 40w1d after two weeks of labor on and off and me crying about being in pain and never going into labor. When I finally got into labor it was no more than six hours from water break to sassypants in my arms.

ama7165 · June 2014

Due 5/3, born 3/17 pPROM and PTL. I think my EDD was off by a week, regardless he was still really early.

Stess22 · June 2014

Based on LMP my due date was May 6th but with dating ultrasound my due date was switched to May 25 ... LO was born June 3 (morning of my scheduled inductions but on his own)

momo214 · June 2014

I put unplanned induction... OB broke my water at 38 weeks due to lots of bleeding. I was dilated but not having contractions so I didn't consider it "labor". Either way, she came early after intervention and is healthy and beautiful

jcf2133 · June 2014

Our LO was due on Mother's Day and arrived 54 minutes into the day so I could have her company to celebrate my first as a mommy. Sweet, right?

jenniferroshto · June 2014

Was due the 8th, water broke at home and labor started immediately on the 4th.

momthatlifts · June 2014

Oops I voted special but I didn't see the second option. My dd was born may 14. Edd was may 26

rainydayluck · June 2014

I had a planned c-section at 37 weeks due to high risk issues....so not near my due date.

JKTTC1 · June 2014

My water was leaking at 36w6d and I was induced within 48 hours.

Helmink0804 · June 2014

I had a Drs appointment on the 29th was told I was gonna be induced the next day and she arrived 8hrs after being admitted on the 30th. My due date was 5/11.
