Early, late, on time?

**Sterla** · January 22nd, 2009, 02:54 PM

Just out of interest, I was wondering if your bub was early, late or on time? I've heard first time mum's are more often late than early. How true was this for you?

DS was 9 days over.

3-5% on EDD. 40% within 2 weeks before EDD, 40% within 2 weeks after EDD

I haven't had any yet! But will be interesting to see... me and my brothers were all over the place, my poor mum!! My older brother was 2 weeks late (he really didn't want to come out!), I was 3 weeks early and my little brother was 5 weeks early which caused a few dramas and he nearly didn't make it, but life just wouldn't be the same without him now!

DS1 was 8 days overdue and DS2 was 5 days overdue - they must have been comfy in there LOL! Both of them looked "overcooked" in that their skin was peeling and they looked like prunes ha ha!

My sister's first was born on his EDD and her second was born a week early. Lucky duck

anyone know the stats for second births?

**myson** · January 22nd, 2009, 05:27 PM

my first was bang on her edd. second was 3 weeks early. both spontaneous.

DD was in a big hurry and came at 38 +2 weeks. waters broke.

they like to say that 1st timers tend to come late, but as the stats kelly listed it's all pretty balanced, and can come as a shock after months of ppl telling you you'll go late if they do come early! ITMS! LOL!

DD was 11 days early!

***Twinkle*** · January 22nd, 2009, 05:48 PM

Gemma was one week overdue.

**Liviam** · January 22nd, 2009, 06:20 PM

DD was 4 days early. Going to be intersting to see what this one is.

**leesha** · January 22nd, 2009, 06:28 PM

DS was 6 days early!

As Cassius2 said....you will get told you will go over and I believed that seeing as I hadn't "Dropped" and had no signs of going early then bang....there he was!!!

I didn't even know I was in labour so by the time I got to the hospital it was only 4 hours till he was born!!!!

**krisp** · January 22nd, 2009, 06:52 PM

DS was 2 weeks late, DD 1 week late.

I have admit though punctuality isn't my strongest point either...

**visitor1** · January 22nd, 2009, 07:22 PM
