I hope all is smooth. Boys tend to be bigger at birth than girls and I gave birth to my son at 40 +5 (by induction). He was 8.7 and born vaginally. Only one tiny tear that healed really fast!!! Can't wait to see your little girl!!! mrskc on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811861 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:05:12 +0000 mrskc 1811861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @tysonja: @Mrsjets: was there a big difference in how much your Los weighed? DS was 7lbs 7 oz born at 38 weeks. Makes me worried she's going to be a lot heavier. But I suppose maybe she's just growing slower? mrskc on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811849 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:02:29 +0000 mrskc 1811849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @tysonja: @Mrs. M: yes! This is part of the problem. I've been ready now for over a week. I've been trying to find more things to occupy myself. I suppose I should just enjoy the quiet right now. @Radish: @Boogs: @SugarplumsMom: @lamariniere: @NovBaby1112: thank you all! I really hope I don't have to wait much longer!

LO1 came early and I'm hoping the same for the next one!

Hang in there!

Just think about how in a month this wait will be a distant memory. I think she may be making up for her brother's early arrival... can't let you get away with not experiencing the full 80 weeks of pregnancy :wink: Mrs. M on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811550 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:30:15 +0000 Mrs. M 1811550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @tysonja: We definitely got a lot done around the house! But, now I feel guilty I didn't take my daughter out as much as normal in fear my water would break or I would go into labor. Luckily my mom just made her flight....originally she was going to plan on early August, so I'm glad she waited! Thank you! I'm sure I will laugh at it all later. :happy: tysonja on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811537 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:26:13 +0000 tysonja 1811537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. M: oh dear! haha... my calendar which is usually pretty filled up, was soooo empty that last month! I had so much random free time -- which in hindsight was pretty nice, I suppose! we kept having to change my mom's flight out from across the country though :) hope your baby arrives soon too! :) Mrs. M on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811522 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:22:23 +0000 Mrs. M 1811522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @tysonja: Oh my, this was my thought process too! We have been ready to go for about the last 3 or 4 weeks. Boy was I wrong!!! My daughter was born on her due date and I am currently 41+1 with #2. At this point it's almost funny! tysonja on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811512 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:18:20 +0000 tysonja 1811512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @mrskc: ack... I feel you. I was convinced that #2 was going to be at least 2 weeks early, so I was 100% ready and expectant nearly a MONTH before he actually showed up! lol kodybear on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811507 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:16:18 +0000 kodybear 1811507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 37w5d with the first. 38w with the second. I really hope u are one of the next ones in our month!! :happy: mrskc on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811506 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:16:10 +0000 mrskc 1811506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @tysonja: oh man that's almost 2 weeks later! Oh geeze I cant imagine being pregnant another week let alone going to 41 + 5. She is definitely letting me know each pregnancy is different ! tysonja on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811464 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:02:14 +0000 tysonja 1811464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ LO#1 came at 39 weeks, LO#2 came at 41+5.... (aaackk!!!) they both came naturally, but I was already in the hospital waiting for an induction (but hadn't begun the induction) when I went into labour naturally with #2. good thing, though, cause he came fast and furious! 3hrs of labour. the waiting was hard!! :) hope your babe comes soon! yin on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811462 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:01:54 +0000 yin 1811462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DS1 came at 38w 4d, and DS2 came at 39w 1d. I went into labor on my own both times. Hoping your baby girl arrives soon! swurlygurl on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811460 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 11:01:49 +0000 swurlygurl 1811460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ :( My daycare provider had her first 2 on her due date, and then #3 was 2 weeks late and had to be induced. I know - sooo not what you want to hear! mrskc on "If your 2nd + LO came later than your first" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-2nd-lo-came-later-than-your-first#post-1811455 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 10:59:38 +0000 mrskc 1811455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ If your 2nd + LO came later than your first, how many days later did they arrive? Please state whether you went into labor naturally or not. DS came at 38 + 3 and I'm currently 39 + 3 and this wait is excruciating! I really hoping she comes this week but trying to mentally prepare myself I may go past my due date. :( I'm just so ready to meet her and get the L&D over with.
