how many days did you go over your edd?

[Yael]

I was induced at 10 days over, due to low fluid levels. I only had an ARM, not the drip (my choice), and had a vaginal birth that evening. I had already started contractions naturally the night before, but still needed to speed things up.

Good luck!

I am now 2 days over and after a scheduled antenatal appointment this morning I am being induced on Sunday which will be 7 days over. I've had a normal pregnancy and am still feeling pretty good - no BP issues or anything so I am a little disappointed at not being able to wait for things to progress. On the upside, I still have three days to convince the baby to come out willingly so will gladly accept any labour vibes that anyone can send our way.

second was EDD 24/8 was born 28/8
Third was 23/10 was born 6/11.
All natural (first was helped along with the drip once waters broke)

My first 2 children were overdue by about 10 days.
I went into labour naturally with my first at 9pm and she was delivered at 5.30pm the next day by vac suction. I think because I went private with my 2nd baby my OB didn't want me to go too long overdue (despite me having a history of it) so I was induced at 8am and delivered vaginally just after midnight that night. I wish I had been left alone to go into labour naturally. Neither of my over due babies had any signs of being 'over cooked' and I had good amniotic fluid levels and the placentas were good too. I think my body just needs a bit longer than other women...

My third baby was induced because I had cholestasis at 37 weeks but I bet he would have been overdue as well.

Bath my 3rd was 12 days over & looked good, my 2nd was 4 days over & everyone commented on how overdue he looked.

I was booked in for an induction at 41 weeks, had the gel and my waters broke around 1am and contractions started so I didn't end up needing the drip, I'd been having cramp type feelings for a few days before and looking back it was probably early labour, so I think I probably would have gone into labour not much past this date anyway, I was well and truly ready!
Sending you lots of labour vibes, it won't be long now!

Stretch and sweep at 6 days over, rupture of membranes and then eventually the drip 8 days over, and delivered at 9 days over. He didn't look overcooked at all. Mind you, I was enormous!

Tia was 10 days over and arrived without any help.
Alisha was 4 days over and came out very quickly.

Now i'm just hoping that this one will arrive either a little early or at least on time!
