Poll: How far along were you when you LO came?

[RobynJ]

So I am just about 35 weeks and starting to daydream about what it will be like to have my little boy here and to NOT be pregnant. I was wondering when people delivered becuase it seems like there have been a lot of mamas who went overdue and I am wondering how common that is.

I didn't vote. I've had 10 babies, and I've gone from 34 weeks to 36 weeks(my c-section) to 40+ to 42 weeks. It worked out that I had 5 early, one on time, and 4 late.

Over the years, the drs have become less worried the earlier they are. Now, 37 weeks is considered full term, according to my docs.

I put 37-38 weeks because 2 of my 3 children were born then. My 8 year old was 38.6 weeks, my 3 year old was 40 on the nose born on her due date and my 17 month old was 38.2 weeks.

I didn't include my twins in my vote b/c it was a obviously different.
My 3rd was induced at 40w3d
My 4th was induced at 39w1d
My 5th was induced at 37w1d

With my first I was induced at 39 weeks due to HELLP syndrome. (So I didn't vote on that since it was medically necessary)

My 2nd was 12 days late so 41w, 5 days
My 3rd is currently 8 days late and I'm still waiting

I went into labor on my own with my daughter (first child) at 40wks 1day. Had her at 8pm on the 19th - she was due on the 18th of Sept.05. She was already 10 lbs, I cringe to think how big she would have been had I not gone into labor when I did.

DD1 was born at 41 weeks

DD2 was born at 37 weeks (after being on bedrest for preterm labor at 33 wk)

DD3 was born at 36 weeks

They were (in order) 7 lbs 13 oz, 6 lbs 13 oz, and 5 lbs 13 oz

My "bookends" (the oldest and youngest) both arrived at 41 + weeks. The other two came at 39 weeks.

[EmnJJsMom]

DD1 came via induced labor at exactly 38 weeks, DD2 came naturally at exactly 37 weeks.

I put 40wks because I've delivered very close to my EDD with all but one. I went into labor on my own with all four and they were born at:

DS1 - 40wk 5d
DS2 - 39wk 5d
DS3 - 38wk 3d (my 'early' one)
DD - 40wk (on her u/s edd, which I considered more accurate than her calculated edd which was 3 days later)
