This is based on the EDD established by the first ultrasound at the beginning of my pregnancy. I believe it should have been two days later based on my ovulation testing. So then it would have been 41+0, 41+1, and 41+2.

My LO wasn't budging (no false anything) though- I was miserable (really bad hip/joint pain from her being really low, I could barely walk) if she had been doing false labor I may have been sent to the looney bin!
