2nd Time Around Mommies

[Lula0609]

I was just wondering (for the 2nd time 'round Mommies) how many of you went into labor early.  I will be 34 weeks tomorrow and was wondering if any of you had a normal full-term pregnancy the first go 'round and then for your second went early.  

I was only 2 days from my due date the first time and was wondering if I need to be planning on going pretty much full-term again or will I most likely go early?  I know this is silly, but for some reason I keep thinking that I'm going to go early.  My first was a girl and she was born 8 lb. 2 oz.  I'm having a boy this time and everyone that I talk to says that boys are "normally larger" than girls.  

I would appreciate any feedback at all from you guys...you're really great at helping folks out with their questions!  
Thanks!

My first was 7 days late and my second was 8 days late. I was induced with my first, but, refused induction and went into labour naturally with my second.

Thanks girlies!  I'm not hoping that this baby will come right now, but hoping that I don't go "all the way" ;D  I'm stoked no matter what day he decides to come.  

I was just curious as to how many ladies out there had a "feeling" and turned out to be correct.

Thanks again!

My first came 1 day early. My 2nd came 2 weeks early and my 3rd came 2 days after my EDD according to my u/s but 5 days early according to my LMP:) With my 3rd I thought for sure I was going to go very cause I was 2 cm dialated from about 32 weeks , but nope right on time!! Every baby is diffrent and comes when they want to:)

Both of my girls were born 2 days before their due dates.

34 weeks is quite early to go into labor! Hopefully baby stays and "cooks" longer, no matter how big they get.

I had my first 5 day before my due date, only after my OB did a membrane sweep that morning that later caused my water to break.  With my son, my water broke at 36w6d after I lost my mucus plug 2 days earlier.  I had the entire, huge bloody show with both of them.  I am now 35w3d pregnant with my 3rd, 1cm dilated adn 50% effaced and so worried I'm going to have this one even earlier than the last.

I am wondering the same thing as you.  I was induced 1 day early with my first because I was 5 cm when I got checked and wasn't having contractions yet...  I feel like I'm going to go early also, it's just a feeling.  My Aunt went two weeks early with her second and my sister went 3 weeks early with hers.  But I've seen girls on here who were late or had to be induced with there 2nd, 3rd or 4th kids, so who knows, LOL!
