Hi!
I've heard that stress really affects your pregnancy, and you might deliver a baby prematurely because of it. I'm not sure if this is true, but i just wanna ask, how many weeks were you pregnant when you gave birth? Do you think anything in particular affected your pregnancy?

All my babies were born after the due date. I had no desire whatsoever for them to come even a day early--not sure if that had anything to do with it or not.

With my first I went into labor at 35 weeks, 6 days. I had just started my first day of college and wasn't used to going up and down all those stairs with a 50lb bag of books on my back (ok, that may be a slight exaggeration, but it was pretty heavy). I was on bedrest for almost 2 weeks and actually delivered at 37 weeks, 4 days.

My next two were both born the day before their due dates and I think they were just ready to come by then.

This one could be coming Monday by induction if he/she doesn't turn around before then. Otherwise it could be anytime within a week or so after that (I'm due Feb. 1st).

My son was born on his due date!! I had a very easy, very relaxed pregnancy. I worked right up til the end, only taken out a week before I delivered because my ankles were way too swollen! I think the fact that it was so easy and non stressful helped a lot and Cam was ready to come into the world right when he was supposed to...if only he listened and followed the rules so well now!!!
