41+3 with my first, currently 40+1 and waiting x
This isn't my date but I'm sure I read the average generally was 40+5 Also I read that quite a lot of mums will have a similar week+days for all births. Fingers crossed you have a baby soon!
39 +2 let your body decide. It's the best way 💚
40+3 too. Our little ones are just too comfortable and happy in our belly's. Well thats what I keep telling myself. Totally understand the impatient part 🤣🫣 x
40+5 with my first, 41 weeks with my second, and that was with no sweeps x
40+6 39+6 Currently 39+3 days ,still waiting x
1st was 38+4 and 2nd born today came at 40+6 so I know how you feel but keep positive! I had an induction booked for 16th and after 3 failed sweeps I admitted defeat but she’s here spontaneously! X
38+5
Ahhh thank you all so much for your replies. Honestly this is what I needed to remind myself I won’t be pregnant forever or feel like being induced is the only way when I’m only 3 days overdue so far! Thank you ❤️
39+5
First baby came 36+6 naturally and I’m still waiting 40+2 after 2 sweeps 😫 so impatient! X
40 weeks to the date with my first (on her due day!) 39 weeks today with #2. Really don’t wanna be induced, I want baby to come spontaneously like with my first!
41+3
41+1 - good luck! 🩷

40+5, I was encouraged to be induced due to baby measuring small (37 week scan showed 10.5 centile), although movements and everything else was perfect. So I stood my ground and waited. I had natural birth at birth centre without complications with baby girl weighting 3250g :)
Had my baby at 41+2 a few days ago, I had my induction booked for 41+5 and was meant to have a sweep the day I went into labour. It was so worth waiting! You’ve come so far, if baby is healthy keep going they’ll soon come 🥰
Hi all! Update!! I attended a sweep yesterday afternoon at 3pm and was told I was 2cm but baby needed to come down a little further and to get bouncing on my ball, I did exactly that and contractions started at 10pm… they intensified quickly and I went to the birth centre at 4am and was 7cm dilated I got in the pool and delivered my gorgeous baby boy, Rudy at 06:25 in the same bath I had my first baby boy 18 months ago ❤️❤️ thank you all for your positivity, it definitely helped me relax and trust the process 🥰
Congrats! Hoping for a similar success story here, currently 40+5 and feeling very deflated! Midwife today and don't want to talk about induction 😬
@Kim aw I’ve got everything crossed for you!! I didn’t even want a sweep really but then I was curious as to whether things were looking positive towards spontaneous labor down there and I do think knowing things were in a good place helped me! Also if it helps I had no other build up I didn’t lose my mucus plug or waters until I was at the birth centre 😊 just contractions started very mildly xxx
Update I went into labour 40+4. Absolutely no signs what so ever before hand, waters didn’t break till I was fully dilated! I was due to get induced today and had her on Monday a few hours after phoning begging to bring my induction forward 🤣
40+4
