How many weeks were you at delivery for all your babies? Or, within how many days of each other were they? Any consistent patterns?

1 day later with my second. 1st was one day before my due date, second was actually on my due date. So my babies are very punctual.

Ooh good question. I was 37+4 with my first so really curious about if I'll be that early again.

LO1: 39+2, LO2: 39+5 but it felt like much later because I thought he'd be earlier

That last 8 days in my second pregnancy felt like an eternity

@SwanSong: @MrsSRS: how cool that you made it past 40 weeks after having a premie first time. I wonder how different that is than the other moms who go longer the second time and get super antsy. How did you feel being pregnant so much longer the second time?

LO1: 40+5
LO2: 39 even (12 days earlier than my first.)
Labor started naturally both times but I had an induction scheduled for 2 days later with my first.

LO1: 40+4
LO2: 41+3 (I had an induction and I definitely did not expect to go this late)

1 day later with DD2. DD1 was born on her due date, DD2 missed her due date by 8.5 hrs - I was so bummed to miss going two for two with babies on their due dates!

@pastemoo: as uncomfortable as I was I tried to stay positive since being past my due date was way better than a NICU stay. Labor and recovery was so much worse though, DS2 was twice the weight of DS1.

@pastemoo: I felt awesome/terrified until 37 weeks. Then excited for a week. Then massive and omg doooooooonnnnneee. Also, having a third trimester meant stretch marks and a squishy postpartum tummy. Labor and delivery were way easier! But recovery was tougher.

13 days late with my first, 10 days early with my second (which caught me off guard!).
