How close did you deliver to your due date

I am 36 weeks and wondering what is the probability that I may deliver earlier than my due date. How many of you delivered before your due date and how many days before?? And were you sure your ovulation date was correct?

Im 36w5d and I am SO ready to deliver!  I'm not sure about my ovulation date at all because I have PCOS.  My due date is March 6.  Wish me luck!  =)

With my 1st DD I delivered 3 days early (39 wks & 4days), with my 2nd DD i delivered 1 week early(39 wks). I'm not sure if it's old wives tale or not, but I heard majority of 1st time mums who delivery early will most likely do the same with the rest of their babies :)

I was one week late with my first and one week one day late with my second.  I was induced both times.

The first time, I'm sure the u/s was right, but this last time, I think it may have been indicating a date that was a week earlier than my actual due date, based on my LMP.

I'm 99% sure that my ovulation date was correct with DD, and I went into labor on my due date and delivered the next day.

I SWORE from wk36 onward that I wasn't going to make it to 40wks, but I did, EXACTLY, lol.

I delivered exactly 2 weeks late with my first.  My mom also delivered 2 weeks late with both me and my sister (her only kids).  I swear that I was late because of her, lol.

I was 100% sure the ovulation date was correct.  I'm not 100% sure of this pregnancy though, I have a week timespan it could have been.
