How far along were you when you gave birth?

Did you go into labor, were you induced, or did you have a scheduled c-section?

I had a scheduled induction at 39w5d.

I went into labor at 39 weeks with DS. My water broke in the middle of the night, and he was born 3 hours and 10 minutes later! I barely made it to the birth center.

I gave birth at 39 weeks 6 days - 1 day before my due date! My induction was started at 39 weeks 4 days.

40w 2d when I went for an induction and had Adam extracted from my body

39w 4d when Nathan was pushed into the world via natural onset of labor.

Both of my children were born at 37w 6d after my water broke on its own.

I was induced at 41 weeks and resulted in a c section

My son was born on his due date after my water broke on it's own.

DD I was 39.4weeks

My water broke at 38 weeks... I didn't start to have labor/contractions until I was put on Pitocin some 4hrs after my water broke... then when the Pit kicked in I was in labor...

I was induced at 36 weeks 5 days due to pre-eclampsia. She was born via emergent c-section at 36 weeks 6 days after her heart rate dropped and did not come back up.

I'm hoping for a vbac next time.

With my first I was 2.5 weeks over due! Went into labor on my own 4 hours before i was to go in for induction

RachelC · #16 January 25th, 2010, 05:00 PM

With my DD, my due date was 11/11, she was born 11/7 via emergency c-section due to fetal distress (after my bag of waters was artifically ruptured).

With my DS, I was due 8/31, he was born 8/16. He was a VBAC and he came on his own, no induction or anything.

I am scheduled to be induced on 1/28 this time around... I am due today, 1/25.

I was scheduled to go into the hospital on Friday 1/15 at 6 am to have my water broken and start the process (would have been 40w 5d at that point). However, my son decided on his own to start the process on Wed. 1/13 and come on his own on Thu. 1/14.

I was almost a c-section, as he was transverse breech up until 39+ weeks and finally turned on his own right around the time we started talking c-section or attempted version.

JessieJean · #18 February 22nd, 2010, 07:38 AM

I was 37w2d. My water broke on "Baby A" and that began the whole process. She was born about 8 hours after my water broke and her sister followed 28 minutes later.

WhoaMomma! · #19 February 22nd, 2010, 10:09 AM

I was induced at 41w 4d and she was born at 41w 6d. Our pediatrician said she probably had another week at least before she was done baking.

Courtney:
I went into labor the day before my due date, she came just after midnight ON my due date.
Rock:
I was induced on my due date, due to GD.
LJ:
I was induced 9 days early due to a stupid nurse pushing me over the mental edge!
