In my head I was preparred to have my baby 10days past my EDD (as that's when I knew the hospital would be pushing induction if I went over) but also in my head and heart I knew bub would be early. I kept this to myself however as I didn't want to be disappointed or have people asking have I had the baby yet. I thought she would come at 38weeks.
The day before she was born I was talking to my midwife friend and admitted I was sure it was going to happen very soon (that was 9pm) she arrived 11am the next day at 36+3. No warning until my waters broke at 6am, no bags packed, camera etc so she arrived even earlier then I expected.
With no1 I was expecting to go over due. I also wasn't preparred when I went into labour at 39weeks. I could have gone another few weeks not expecting it to happen lol
If no3 ever comes I will be expecting it to arrive early (due to the past 2) and will probably have it after I expect it.
