5 days over due now! How late did you babies come?

Question

5 days over my due date now😕 fed up!

Answer

I was 2 WEEKS over with my oldest daughter. My doc absolutely refused to consider inducing me until I was 42 weeks.

Answer

41+5

Answer

Both of my children were exactly 1 week over their estimated due date. It’s just an estimation, so babies are often born around that date rather than exactly on the date. 
I knew the date of conception for both and it was a week later than doctor’s estimated date. And they were both born within a day of my conception date estimation. For me that is much more accurate!

Answer

41+2. I was 40+6 when I went in to be induced (not my choice) still took 56 long ass hours and I was hardly able to eat anything. I think I was given one real meal the whole time and the rest of the time was clear liquids. Personally wouldn't recommend being induced unless 100% absolutely medically necessary. When my son was born he had to be put on oxygen and I have no idea if it was from being in labor for that long or from the induction medication. Whatever you do just don't let them give you Cytotec (it's a blue pill) it is not FDA approved for inductions, can cause serious complications such as uterine rupture and is most commonly used for early term abortions.

Answer

I think the latest is supposed to be 1 week past your due date they they schedule an induction luckily for me i gave birth right on my due date. With my second idk if he will be on time or late haha

Answer

I would personally get induced..the longer you go past....the higher the risk for a stillbirth

Answer

It’s soooooo frustrating! My babies were 5&6 days late 😣 Up to two weeks late is considered “safe”

Answer

My babies were kind to not make me suffer that long being pregnant, the earliest one came at 37+4 and the longest I was pregnant for was 39+4.

Answer
