re: I know when my LO will be born ( despite my due date)

Aiden's original Due Date was September 24th. I was supposed to be induced on the 14th for health reasons. I had my last appointment on September 4th, which is when I signed the induction papers and we talked about how it would go. I told the Dr. "This is fine, but I really feel like we're not going to make it that long...I think he's coming soon." She said "Well, you've been dilated to a 2 and 90% effaced for weeks now with no progress, so I doubt it." I went home, and my water broke 2 hours later   Aiden was born that night at 10:49 pm, at 37 weeks, 6lbs 9oz 19 inches  

Quoting amiller2013:" Well the reason why it is a week. Is because ever since I was about 8 weeks pregnant every time I thought ... [snip!] ... Sunday. So I say my DS is going to be born from Easter Sunday till April 7. Thats where that illusive 17 comes into play  "

Easter Sunday falls on my sons birthday this year!!! March 31st!   It's crazy how Easter is the only holiday that constantly changes.

my doctor said a due date of the 17th of April. When that is an impossible due date for us due to when we had sex. According to when the conception date would be, I am due the 23rd of March. My OB told me that he cannot change my due date with medicaid because of how he measured at the 1st ultrasound but that since my daughter was small too that he doesnt doubt I am truly that far and to go with the March 23rd for personal use. I still feel like my little boy is going to come early. Around the 11th. I am anxious to see if I am right.

Quoting amiller2013:" So I was wondering if any other moms have that ' gut feeling ' of when their LO will be born. My LO's ... [snip!] ... 7. Does anyone else have these feelings?? And how far off from your due date is your gut telling you that your LO will be born?"

Everyone I know "just knows" they will have their baby before their due date. Most of them go overdue... I think it's wishful mommy thinking!
