Did your second baby come before your due date?

Question

I guess I'm just looking for hope that I won't go overdue like I did with my firstborn, born last year in October 11 days late. I got pregnant again quickly and I am expecting my second this October. (Yep, two kids 12 months apart!) So for moms with two or more kids, did your second or subsequent children come early?

Answer 1

My second child was born a week and half early!

Answer 2

With my first I was induced at 37 weeks (toxemia) 5lbs 12oz

With my second I was induced because she wouldn't come out!!! 8lbs 2oz

With my third I was induced at 35 weeks (toxemia again) 4lbs 4oz

There's no telling! Better a little late than too early!!!

Good luck, congrats, and hopefully an easy birth & healthy baby!

Answer 3

All of my kids were early.  First, induced due to preeclampsia.  Second, born exactly a week early.  Third, induced a week early due to her size.  Fourth, born 6 weeks early due to placenta abrupto.

Answer 4

My son was 3 days overdue. This was with bedrest and preterm labor.

Then my daughter was 2 weeks early. This was with partial bedrest and preterm labor.

Good luck!!!

Answer 5

My twins and triplets won't even be 12 months apart. My due date is a month before the twins' 1st birthday!

I was 38 weeks pregnant when Lucy (my firstborn) wanted to get out.

I was 37 weeks when Addy and Sarah (my twins) were born.  

Answer 6

I was induced the first time (girl), then the second time (boy) I went into labor on my own at 36 1/2 weeks, and then the third time I was induced again (girl). My girls didn't want to come out! ;o)

Answer 7

with my first, my water broke on my due date-i had him 1:42 the next morning. with my second, i was induced 4 days after my due date-i had him 4 hours after induction. and with my third, i had him about 3 weeks before my due date.

Answer 8

Funny. Both of my kids were due February 2nd (three years apart).  My son was born on February 11th, my daughter on January 29th. So like you, I know the pain of going  9 days over. ICK, it was miserable. My baby girl came early, and I hope the same for you!
