My EDD is 2/3 based on my LMP, but my personal EDD is 2/9 based on ovulation. LO has measured 4-6 days behind depending on the ultrasound but they never adjusted the due date because he was measuring within a week of their EDD.</p> <p>I actually made sure with my midwife yesterday that induction isn't routine at their office (it's a combo practice with 2 midwives and 2 doctors), and they said it's absolutely not -- because I don't want to get to 2/4 and have them go well, time to induce! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334499 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 22:21:09 +0000 duckduckkristen 334499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a week early if you go by my O date and ultrasound. 3 days early if you go by LMP. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334495 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 22:18:00 +0000 pinkcupcake 334495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think if I went by O date, L was 2 days early. Dating by ultrasound, she was 4 days early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334487 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 22:08:53 +0000 pastemoo 334487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>40+0 my water broke but my labor had to be "helped" with pitocin. DS was born by "emergency" cesarean at 40+1, a few hours from 40+2 and I was SO CLOSE to delivering by vacuum. I think it would have been 40+2 if they let me deliver on my own or with the vacuum. Or 40+1 and a lot of extra hours. :)<br /> Ugh. I'm getting less bitter but I'm obviously still bitter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334465 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 21:46:06 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 334465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good question!!!<br /> Based on when I O'd my EDD is tr 17th.<br /> Based on LMP &amp; 1st u/s &amp; weekly belly measuring: my EDD is the 12th.<br /> I am predicted to go any minute so I'll let you know when I actually do. I wonder all the time if he is really meant to come on the 17th. Hope not....tonight would be a good night to come! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334068 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 16:38:09 +0000 Mrs.B 334068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Based on O date my due date was Oct 16th but by my LMP it was Oct 14th.

Based on a dating u/s, my due date was technically 3 days later but I knew when I'd ovulated and I knew when we'd BD (only decided to pull the goalie for the first time on O day) so I was 100% confident in my due date calculations...and sure enough, 40 weeks to the day later, DD arrived. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334037 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 16:24:56 +0000 Running Elley 334037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My due date by ultrasound was 10/17. I know exactly when I ovulated though and the accurate due date was 10/19. So my water broke naturally at 38w3d if you go by O date. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334028 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 16:22:10 +0000 mrskc 334028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: heh, well I meant labor starting naturally. Was your due date based on LMP or early U/S? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-334000 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 16:15:48 +0000 Mrs. Pen 334000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well I kinda cheated cause I had to be induced lol but I really do believe labor would have come really soon if I hadn't been induced, and I gave birth at 38+5. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-knew-your-o-date-how-far-along-were-you-when-you-went-into-labor-based-on-o-date#post-333997 Wed, 10 Oct 2012 16:14:19 +0000 mrskc 333997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that I'm in the final stretch, I'm really starting to get anxious about when I'll go into labor. My EDD based on LMP was Oct 15th which I knew was wrong. I knew when I O'd b/c I charted and was using OPK's. I had a dating u/s at 7 weeks which changed my EDD to Oct 25th which lined up with when I think I ovulated. It's probably just wishful thinking on my part that I won't go too past my EDD since it's based on ovulation. </p> <p>How far along were you when you went into labor if your EDD was based on your ovulation date or early U/S?</p> <p>ETA: Oh and I mean labor starting naturally. Being induced or having a scheduled c-sec doesn't count! </p>
