    how many days did you go over your edd?

    hello- was just wondering if people could share how long they went after their estimated due date, and whether they went on to get induced or go naturally. thank you

    With my first I went 2 days over, had a quick natural birth. I'm hoping to follow that trend, but I'm honestly not holding my breath - LOL. This boy seems to be comfy.

    With Mya i was spot on, but still had to be induced.

    With Bodhi i went 7 days over. I was booked in to be induced 4 days later. Glad it happened naturally tho. I had an internal(ewwww) the day b4 he was born & i think it helped things along.
    He was a 9.5 lb baby, so i can only imagine how big he would of been if he held off those extra 4 dayshehe

    Hi Gracie, it WILL happen very soon for you!

    With my DS I went into labour 7 days overdue and he was born the next day, making him 8 days overdue (like you are today!). I was booked in to be induced if I went 10 days over, luckily I didn't need to worry.

    Wishing you all the best, you are doing really well!

    My DS was born at 42 weeks and 1 day. I went into labour naturally but after my waters broke and were very heavily meconium stained I didn't progress past 8 cm and after 14 hrs had a CS. Hot nice but my DS is the most delicious little man ever!

    Umm please remember this was nearly 21 years ago but i was 20 days overdue. Yes 20. This was due to a hospital record keeping mix up because there was a woman with a extemely similar name to myself my OB at the time picked up the wrong file at cinic . OB was going on leave for two weeks wrote something on my notes about induction when he returned if i hadn't birthed in the mean time .

    Long stort but my DD was born 20 days over her skin was just peeling off her when she was eventually born. Was a horrific experience for a first time mum

    Gracie i know you wont go that far over, your little one will turn up right before induction i bet

    My first birth was at 14 days post dates, second on due date 3rd 10days post dates, 4th on due date! I have never had to date an augmented birth - they all came with a little help from herbs, epo etc etc. I did have a stretch and sweep with my first birth...

    My labour started naturally 7 days post dates, DD was born 10 days post dates (was booked in on that 10th day to be induced).

    I am expecting much the same this time, I'm not even going to discuss induction till I am 14 days over (PAHLEEESE don't let that happen ).
