Baby at 37 weeks, will it happen again?

I had my son at 37 weeks and 2 days.  Will I have my second early or closer to my due date?

I had my first at 36 weeks but the doc thinks I'm going early with this one too, I'm 33 weeks and have already had some false labor and preterm labor signs.

Not necessarily. I had my 2nd right at 37 weeks so I expected the next to come that soon, but I didnt have her until 38w5d. I do think its always wise to be ready anytime after 36 weeks though.

I had my first at 37 weeks and some days, and my second I had at 37 weeks and I think 4 days. I'm hoping I have my third early as well!!

I have been thinking about this too. I had my son at 37 weeks. From everything I have read it is more likely that you will go early if you did with previous pregnancies. It isn't a hard rule though.
