How accurate was your due date?

Chelsea • Momma to a wild 3 year old❤️

I’m due July 28th (according to my last period) but baby boy is measuring bigger and i keep having this feeling he’s going to come early! Any other mamas experienced this?

According to my last period my daughter was due July 5th. The dr went by how she was measuring instead (she measured very small the entire time) they told me my due date was August 5th. I had her on July 4th 🤷🏻‍♀️

Wow!! That is crazy... I can’t believe they were that off. My OB is the opposite- the ultrasound tech thinks I’m further along than what they’re saying but my OB swears by last menstrual cycle day.

In natural birth that occurred with labor being spontaneous (not induced) the average first time mom is about 8-10 days late. I had two unmedicated home births and both my kids were late. First was 8 days. Second was 2 days. My second child was almost 10lbs. Came out fine. Not pushing on your back does wonders.

Was that on all fours instead of laying on your back? This is something I’ve been thinking about :)

Mine was measuring big, by several weeks, my water broke 4 days before due date. She wasn’t “big” she was just long

You’ll never know. I’m not really fixing on my due date coz baby can come any time.

I was due July 28 last year and had her july 16th. I said from early on I’d her the 16 because my twin cousins bday is that day.

I kept feeling like I would go into labor early with my first, and I didn’t. I had her on due date though, she measured ahead the whole time as well.
