How many were over due?
For those of you who read my wedding post, know my situation. I'm hoping now
I don't go over due. This is my first child. How many of you went over due with your first? And is so, were you induced? -- Jody EDD 29/06/04 http://jodypellerin.ath.cx/Baby |

DD was born on her due date. Which was nice considering it was her daddy's
birthday. I read a statistic somewhere (don't remember the source) that 5% of firstborns are born on their due date. Of the other 95% 2/3 of them are late. Wish I could remember the source of this. Rose Mamma to Caity Feb 13 1999 ( Daddy's best birthday present) |

How many were over due?
I was 2 weeks overdue before I got induced. I wouldn't recommend induction
as it increases the chances for c-section and the labour sucks. You don't have early labour, it's just right into active labour. I also had a reaction to the Cervadil and had piggybacking contractions (3 in a row before a break). Next time I will wait until the baby is ready. -- Nadene |

A survey I did on this group not too long ago seemed to verify a study that showed that around half of first-time mothers go into labor on or after 41w1d if not induced before then. This means that the majority of first-timers clearly go to or beyond 40 weeks. How many of you went over due with your first? Me. And is so, were you induced? Yes. Unnecessarily, IMO, at 41w4d. I wouldn't recommend it without a very pressing medical reason. -- Be well, Barbara (Julian [6], Aurora [4], and Vernon's [22 mos.] mom) This week's special at the English Language Butcher Shop: "Taxi's R Us" -- name of a cab company Daddy: You're up with the chickens this morning.

And is so, were you induced? I was 15 days overdue with my first. No, I wasn't induced, although my doctor was making noises about pushing for induction if I went more than 3 weeks past EDD. Clisby |
