[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here - what about timing of delivery? My mom and sister both delivered their kids two weeks early, and I kind of wonder if that is any indication of when I deliver.[/quote] I asked my OB the same thing because my first two were both at 39 weeks, and my sister's four kids were all 36-38 weeks. But my OB said it's not something you can be predisposed to. I'm not sure I believe it though... seems odd that out of 6 kids, all would come before 40 weeks with no inductions or c-sections. [/quote] Well, roughly 50% (more, counting preemies) would be born before 40 weeks, and the rest after, statistically speaking, if 40 weeks is the average. So that doesn't seem unlikely to me at all that those six could come before 40 weeks.[/quote]
