1st time preggers

Do you feel you will be late or do you think you'll be a few weeks/days early? Obviously it's just a guess but what do you think? It's a 50/50 shot.

I'm not a first timer BUT my baby is measuring small (10 days behind my LMP) MY EDD is 3/25 but baby is measuring April 4th. So I don't know what to think. My final anwer is .....I think I will go a handful of days early, maybe 4 or 5 at the most. Watch me be the last of the March crew. It figures since I've been pg for 18 months!!!

I really have no clue .... but the end of the pg is my favorite part. The anticipation drives me up a wall but it also makes me so excited too!!! You never know when it's gonna happen!!!

Re: 1st time preggers

My baby is measuring a little big. My mom was on time (to the day) with both my sister and me. My sister was a few weeks early with her 1st. DH was born 2 days early. Their guess is as good as mine.

Part of me wants to go early...b/c I prefer the May birthstone to June's Chat Icon and part of me wants to go late so that his/her birthday is in middle June.

We'll see...as long as the baby is healthy, I'll take whatever s/he decides to give me.

Re: 1st time preggers

I have the strongest feeling that I will go early. I've felt this way for months so I hope I'm right! I'm due on 4/1 but for some reason I think I'm going in on 3/26 and DH thinks 3/27. The rest of my family thinks I'll be anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks early. It's so funny, they actually have a pool going.

My mom delivered my brother (her 1st) 3 days early so I guess it's a possibility.

In the end..whenever she/he is ready is fine with us..just be healthy Chat Icon

Usually you have a growth sono at around 32 plus weeks. I had mine at 34 weeks. Most women get this sono but it's ok if you don't. Your Dr's office may not do it. At this sono they measure the baby. My baby was measuring small. Does that mean I will go early or late...NO! It's just says that the baby is on the small side. But if you were to see me I don't look on the small side. I look like an amazon and the belly is there!!!!

Re: 1st time preggers

I better not go early- DHs midterms are the week before my due date.
Actually, I'm due on a Tuesday, so he can come as early as Saturday. No earlier.

Re: 1st time preggers

I seriously hope I go early because my sister is getting married the 1st week of Oct and I'm due at the end of Sept! The baby measured smaller than my LMP anyway. Also I think it would be cool to share my b-day with the baby (20th)

Re: 1st time preggers

I guess I will know more next Monday the 25th after my growth sono. I think I may go early just because of how active this kid is. It's like she wants out NOW.. I was a week late and DH was three weeks early.

Re: 1st time preggers

I think I'll pretty much be on time. I always say if baby wants to come in march it should be a Chat Icon (all the men in DH's family have march bdays) and april for a Chat Icon (diamond is the birthstone) Chat Icon

I hope to avoid April 1st but will take baby when he or she decides to come.

I loved it up until this point. I'm way too type A to deal with the uncertainty of when my baby will arrive! I want to know!!!

That being said, while I would love for her to arrive early, I think realistically I'll go 2 or 3 days late (based on my lack of progress, and that my friends have all gone late with their first). I guess we'll see soon enough. As long as she is safe and healthy, I'll be happy!

Re: 1st time preggers

I am also measuring 7-10 days behind, so I think I'm going to go a little late. I wouldn't mind being on time or even a bit early though. I was on time and DH was 2-3 weeks early. We will just have to wait and see!

Lillian771 You and I have the same due date and I have a pretty strong feeling I'll go early also!

No woman in my family has ever made it to their due date. Everyone ranges from 6-1 week early. I'm hoping for at least a week and a 1/2 early because my Dr. is on vacation the week before I am due! Just my luck right!

Re: 1st time preggers

I think I will go late. The baby is measuring big but I know my due date is off (longer than 28 day cycles). Even though was measuirng big (@ level 2 sono) I just fell like I will be a week late.
