First time did you go into labor earlier or later than due date

Hello lovelies,
Today I would like to discuss the infamous and (technically) unknown DUUUUEEE DATTTE!
I am 36 weeks tomorrow.. I am due July 25th.. Yet, do not think that will happen though.. I think I am going to go into labor earlier.. do not know.. Just have this gut feeling I guess. This baby reminds me of her father.. Impatient and stubborn.
LOL i love it! I can almost hear her thoughts.. "I will come out when I say so, not when you say.." and "Oh what? First time babies come usually one week later than due date.. I will come one week earlier!"  Yup I seriously think this is her plan.

What about you mamas? Did you have an earlier labor than expected? Tell me your thoughts on all this.. Even if your in the same boat I am in right now...Think you may have an early or later delivery date..

I went into labor and had my daughter 2 weeks early at 38 weeks. They told me at my 37 check up it woyldvt be long, as I was already 4cm and cervix was very very thin.

I was 3 days early. I had my son on a lunar eclipse or something like that so the nurses told me it was the gravitational pull from the moon and that everyone had been going into labor that day. I was also told by my brother that it was the first day of winter and that because of that he was born to be great it is also my brothers birthday. He was just meant to be born that day I guess.
