Due Date vs. Delivery Date for 1st Baby

Hi there-

I am just trying to get feel for people's actual delivery date vs. estimated due date.

Thanks!

I voted "more than one week before EDD" - I was induced two weeks before EDD due to IUGR.

DD was due Aug 28th based on LMP. her final u/s dated her at sept 14th (although my OB refused to change her due date) and DD was born 20 days early on Aug 8.

ETA--my water broke. so no extenuating circumstances to her being born early.

According to my chart, my due date was June 27. According to the ultrasound at 10 weeks 5 days, it was June 26. I went into labor on June 26, and DS was born on the 27th. So I guess both were right on the money!

According to my charting and calculations my EDD was June 14, and DS was born on June 13. Can't get a whole lot closer than that.

I was 2 weeks overdue and had to be induced.

I charted and was due Oct 15th. I was induced on Oct 26th and DS was born Oct 27th. So almost 2 weeks over my EDD. I still felt great though!

I KNEW I was going to go past my EDD because the same happened for my mom I think that maybe we just cook them longer

My DD was due on April 16th and was born on March 6. I was 6 weeks early with her. I was put on bed rest at 32 weeks due to being dialted to 1 already. She was born 2 weeks after that when my water broke. But all was fine and she went home with me the next day.
