DS was born on 40+3 (went into labor at 40+2).
I'll be happy if DS2 comes even a day before then!

My doctor keeps telling me at every appointment that second LOs usually come sooner---but I don't want her here too soon! LO #1 came a week early--this time, my due date is August 15th, and we are driving all the way to the Outer banks for a week starting July 4th weekend, so I'd really rather not have a baby in another state.

Induced two days earlier due to BP. Otherwise, I'm convinced my babies want to bake forever

Later! 38w 4d with LO1 and 39w 1d with LO2. Surprisingly both times I ate at the same Korean restaurant the night before I went into labor.

Boo. I really wanted it to be solidly earlier. I went to 40+4 (or 3?) and I really don't want to go over again.

DD1 was born 39+5, but my water broke the day before. DD2 didn't come until 40+5, and they'd been threatening to induce for hypertension since 37 weeks. I had basically given up on her ever coming by the time she came

Earlier! But by only ONE day. DD1 was born 41+0 and DD2 was born 40+6. I was really hoping DD2 would be a bit earlier but nope. Fashionably late entrance?

Earlier, but I didn't go to labor with either. DS1 was a scheduled c section at 39+1. DS2 had low fluid so my c section was bumped up at 37+5.
