    I thought I would go early with Marcus as Jason was on his EDD and fast so I'm hoping your gut is right!

    My 1st DS was post date. the hossy let me go to 43 weeks.

    I had a sense that i would go over again but towards the middle i felt that i would go early. Even the GP, doctors at the hossy and clinic nurses said bubs was engaged and i'd go early... Bubs ended up dis-engaging and i was induced 10 days post date...

    I hope for you that your feeling is right best get ready JIC.

    Yep I think you should listen to it.

    When I was pregnant with DS I was having gut feelings from the beginning about aspects of his birth that I couldn't shake. I was dreaming about it really vividly even though there was no reason at the time to believe his birth would be much different to my DD's.

    My gut was right

    All through my first pregnancy I felt that DD would be 2 weeks early and she came at 37w6d - so I would get ready if I was you

    Both my girls were over by at least a week.
    DD1 - had no idea
    DD2 - was due May 29 - I told everyone I was having a June baby. She was born June 5.
    DS - had a feeling he would be early. On the 1st of March I was invited to a BBQ for the 8th. I actually said 'sorry, but I'm planning on being in hospital that day'. Not only was DS born on that day, but he was 2 days early!

    With DD my mum kept saying she'd be born on 11th Dec (due date was 4th) and lo and behold she was right.

    With DS i had a feeling i would go early although i didnt know how early. He was born 4 days early.

    I would listen to your gut instinct. Even if your off, you'll still be prepared if you are right.

    I found out my EDD with Madeleine was July 24, and I told my ex that I felt that the baby would be born on July 17. He and I actually had a bet going and I won, Madeleine was born on July 17.
    I also had a feeling that I would go early with Harrison, and he was born 5 days early, though toward the end I felt like I would go over with him.
