    DS1 arrived at 41 weeks and 3 days (I refuse to say 10 days over as you are not really overdue until you get past 42 weeks gestation )
    DS2 arrived at 40 weeks and 1 day
    The twins arrived at 38 weeks exactly (spontaneous labour, no induction).

    DD engaged more than DS, too. With DS, I was induced at 42 weeks. DD spontaneous at 42+3.
    You only went 9 days over, you'll be right. Just keep jumping up and down.

    Do you know what your mum's pregnancies were like? Mine was 42+3, 41, 41+5

    DD was 12 days over and induced with 24hour labour
    DS was 7 days over and spontaneous labour that lasted 7 hours
    Hoping this one will be like DS but maybe on time! that would be nice or just a few days over!

    All 3 10days over and induced with a 2cm dilated cervix and engaged and ready to go. All vaginal births.
    No amount of walking or whatever was getting me going, no hint of twinges.
