When do people think baby will come?

My daughter came at 41+5! Is that likely to happen again this time or is it likely he could come before the due date? What do people think?

My gynaecologist said that it’s likely I’ll go past my due date again as some women might have a slightly longer gestation period. Statistically I think that’s also something I’ve read.
We’ve got pretty much everything ready now (I’m 38w) but I am mentally trying to prepare myself to go past 41 weeks again :) if baby comes early that’ll be a nice surprise

Im manifesting for some point in the next few days (39 weeks) but honestly feel like it will be 41 👹🆘

I’m guessing 41 weeks as statistically it’s more likely to go over than early but it would be a nice surprise if she came early 😊

I was 38+4 with my first! So I kind of have it in my head it’ll be similar this time round, but not sure how true it is that it’s roughly the same each time? X

First was 41+4, second 41+6 and I’m currently 40 weeks 😅
Prepared for the worst but anything sooner would be a bonus!

C-section insecurity

Just wondering if anyone has any advice?

I'm 14 weeks postpartum after an emergency C-section and struggling to not hate my body. My scar is wonky and has a kink in it, I have the C-section shelf which is massively messing with my suspected long term body dysmorphia and I overdid it on the exercise which has made my belly more swollen than it has been. I avoid looking in mirrors because of all of this.

I want to exercise to like my body again but don't know how to do it without making it worse? Has anyone else struggled like this that wouldn't mind talking about how they dealt with it to love themselves again?

Has anyone done the window curtain for their elective? What was it like?

The consultant I was speaking with last Wednesday (when I thought I wanted a VBAC), put in my notes that I wanted a window curtain for my elective. Just wondering about everyone's experience with that if you had one? I know it won't gory or anything like that because it still blocks the icky parts lol, but just curious 😊

First time trying this but the thought came to my mind this morning/ night when the little one wouldn’t go down but thought I’d give this a try


Any little ones born the same day as mine and got birthday pals 😂
