My due date was 1/17/2008. I went into labor on my own on 1/21/08, the same day I was scheduled to have a non-stress test and start talking about having to be induced. Turns out, it wasn't an issue!

Jude is my first baby. His due date was November 14, but I actually had him on October 19 (4 weeks early), but he was 7 pounds 11 oz and healthy! Funny thing...My baby shower was the 18th and I had just gotten home... my husband and I were putting everything away and then my water broke!! He was born early on the 19th.

This was my first pregnancy so I really didn't know what to expect. My son was due on the 2nd June 08 but come two weeks early on the same night I was having a tour of the hospital. It was funny listening to them next door lol!

My son's due date was April 17th and I had to be induced 11 days after. I finally had him 12 days after his due date on April 29th. Man that was the longest 2 days of my life!! You could tell he was overdue because his skin was so dry and peeling. I was told that most first babies are overdue but most of my friend all had early babies. I guess everyone is different.

My daughter was due Feb. 5, 2004 and I had her Jan. 14, 2004. My son was due Nov. 12 and I was induced Nov. 14 and had him that same day. They wouldn't let me go too far over due because I had a c-section with my daughter and had my son vbac.

I was due September 21, 08 with our little girl. I went to see my doctor Sept. 24 and we made an apt to be induced Sept. 30. That afternoon of the 24th, I started feeling contractions and went to the hospital around supper time and had Casimira the morning of Sept. 25, which is also my niece's/god-daughter's bday, and my husband's grand-father bday (who past away a few years ago); which made his grand-mother so happy and Casimira is also named after her.

I was due 30th March 2009 and our little girl was born on 5th Jan 2009 at 28 weeks. I was expecting to be 2 weeks late, not 12 weeks early!

Samantha - posted on 01/30/2009

My due date was July 2nd, but I was induced on June 25th after being 2 cm dilated and 100% effaced for like a week....lol

Jill - posted on 01/30/2009

I actually wanted to go late. I purposely started my mat leave a week before my due date (April 13) to have time for myself, but instead I finished work on a Friday, threw my husband a 30th birthday party on the Saturday, went into labour Sunday morning (my husband's actual birthday) and had Lily Monday night (April 7, after 36 hours of labour) on the first day of what would have been my 'week off'. I'm sure it was the stress of tying up loose ends at work plus Mike's 30th that made me go early! I had a pedicure appt for the Tuesday I came home...would have gone too, but it was too painful to sit in one spot longer than 10 minutes!

Elizabeth - posted on 01/30/2009

My son was taken 11 weeks early. He was fine, but the dr. didn't listen to me & dated him wrong. My normal OB had dated him correctly. My daughter was born 3 hours before her due date! My mother managed to scare me into labor with her driving! How funny is that? They broke my water in the morning after inducing me the night before. 13 hours later, I had a beautiful daughter born naturally! It was the best and most loving experience I've ever had!

Becky - posted on 01/30/2009

but I only pushed for 35 minutes. Long labor, quick delivery! It probably wouldn't have been as long, but my epidural stalled out my labor.

my son tristan was due on the 10th of december and i had him naturally on the 11th of november

My doctor didn't believe I knew exactly the day I conceived (3/31/07). She told me my daughter was due on 1/10/08. Annabelle was born on 1/1/08, exactly 9 months and 1 day from conception, although my labor started on 12/31 (and it lasted 33 hours).

Jackson's due date was May 19th 2008. I was induced on May 10th and had him on May 11th!

My first daughter was supposed to be due on July 23 2003 and ended up getting induced on July 30th and my second daughter was supposed to be due on August 6th 2005 and I ended up going into labor by myself on August 8 and had her the same day

Amy - posted on 01/30/2009

Oh no my due date is Feb. 8.... If I am late I may go crazy :)

Kristy - posted on 01/30/2009

My daughter was due August 2nd and I had her August 4th after being induced.  My son was due April 8th and I had him March 27th.  One early and one late.

Aleycia - posted on 01/30/2009

My son was due December 11th, his third due date... they kept changing it, and I had him on December 15th after making the decision to be induced. I'm due June 14th this time around so we'll see. All I know is I'm never inducing again, she can stay in there until she's 18 for all I care.

I am super weird, all 4 of my kids were born with a day of due dates. Very acurate timeing. All my deliveries got quicker too! the first one was over in 5 hours with 20 minutes of pushing, the second 2 hours with 4 pushes, the third was fastest, 1 and 1/2 hours with one push!!! and the fourth was 2 hours of labor and 2 pushes.

Julie - posted on 01/30/2009

My boy was due October 25, 2008. On September 27, my mom, stepfather, and sister were all out of town, and my husband and I were joking about how funny it would be if our son came while they were all gone. Then my water broke early the next morning, and my son was born that same day September 28, 2008.

I actually enjoyed that quiet time in the hospital with just me, husband, and baby before all my family got back in town.

My due date was 29th August 2004 but our daughter was finally born 7th September 2004. I was meant to be induced tuesday 7th but my waters broke and contractions started early monday morning (the 6th).

Julie - posted on 01/30/2009

hahaha man that sounds a lot like my experience.  My due date was Sept.9 2005 and I went in on Sept. 21 to spend the night in the hospital with cervidil (sp) to try to soften my cervex...they broke my water and did all that the next morning around 7 AM.  I had her on Sept. 22 at 7 PM after a c-section.  They only let me go 12 hrs since she had a bowel movement inside (meconia or whatever) and I wasn't dilating past 5 cm....She was 13 days late.  I was so upset when my due date came and passed...I told all my pregnant friends not to be too depressed if that happened to them, and guess what?  ALl those lucky girls had their babies either a day early or ON THEIR DUE DATE! ugh. haha.

I was due on Jan. 14th, 2008 with my Emma, but went into labor on January 10th, and after 42 hours had her on the morning of the 12th!:)
