Hey everyone, hope all ladies pregnant and
not pregnant and babies and newborns are
all fit and well.
I'm so confused, on my pregnancy notes it
says...
"Expected date of delivery - 15th
September"
"Agreed date of delivery - 18th
September"
So which one is my due date!? Lol!
I either turn an extra week every saturday
or every tuesday. That would make me
either 31 weeks today, or 31 weeks the
saturday just gone, approaching 32 weeks?!
Those extra 3 days make all the difference
to me cos I'm so fed up of being pregnant
already, the hormones are making me feel
crazy so I'd rather my due date be the
15th not the 18th but I don't know which
one to go by??
Any idea's?

I would say that the 15th is your due
date. Maybe the 18th is an induction date
if you haven't gone into labor yet?????

expected date of delivery = due date
i have no idea what the other one is
for... probably when they start saying
your over due... i know they told me i'm
due between aug. 28th and sept. 5th... i
guess it's kinda like that

Ooo hey cool!
Knowing my luck I'll go overdue, I was
talking to my nan on the phone the other
day and she said "We hold onto the little
wenches" lol. With
all my nan's pregnancies, 8 of them she
went overdue by a day or more. My mum
didn't with me though, and a lot of people
have had babies at 38 weeks in our family
soo who knows. It would be cool if we had
our babies on the same day!!
I'm so excited now, 8 weeks left and I
just cannot wait! It's starting to drag
and go slowly now tho. As a matter of
fact, I love sleeping but I do really
enjoy my warm bubbly baths, shaving my
legs whilst I can still reach but its
getting difficult. lol

i agree...except i dont take baths because
i have 2 guys living with me an the
bath tub gets rather gross..i cant clean
it very easily either
it drives me nuts....anyways...hopefully
you dont go over due because i know the
anticipation is already getting to you
because i know !! the past 2 weeks has
gone by rather slow for me! i want to
meet the little guy already...what did you
get on your glucose test?? i have to go
back for a 3 hour because mine was 135
highest is 140 in the normal range but he
said he thinks anything over 130 is
abnormal....grr....so im on a strict diet
no sweets,juices,carbs, soda,milk
(although i dont know why he is so
convinced milk is so bad for you)
anyways....what did you get?

not exactly... you'll be 8 months on
august 15th. according to your due dates
you just hit 7 months on sunday.
lauren, i've never heard that term. i
guess it makes sense that that will be
your date of induction if you go over? i
don't know...

No idea, I just assume that I can give
birth between the 15th or the 18th. Then
still go over. Who knows!
I count it the same way KFIG does, 24
weeks - 6 months, 28 weeks - 7 months, 32
weeks - 8 months... I asked my midwife
this and she said most women go by that
because in all honesty, thats how it is.
Oh and KFIG I haven't had a glucose test,
don't think I've heard of it either. My BP
is always low, 90/60 last time I went, and
I've eaten healthily throughout too, minus
a few sweets and lollipops!
