Does first baby usually come on due date ?

Question

Answer

“Due date” is a horrible misnomer. It should be “guess date” because baby can naturally come anytime between 37-42 weeks. Only a small percentage of babies are born on their due dates and would be even less if we counted only those moms who were not induced. 
Most first time moms will go to 41-42 weeks.

My first was born 39+1. It’s rare to have a due date baby so was shocked when my second came on hers

Answer

I personally did as my mom’s first, 44 minutes into my due date, but I also know it’s only like... 5% of people that actually hit that mark or something???

Answer

My son came on his due date. Technically, labor started the day before.

Answer

I went into labour on my due date, but my baby was born the next day. I think it's all just luck of the draw!
