do 2nd babies come earlier?

whats the general concensous? my son was a week early and im hoping for the same this time! do they tend to be earlier or is this just old wives tale? i hate the thought of going overdue and as im due 20th dec i dont want him/her xmas day! xxx

  • All three of mine came 13 days late. First two were induced but the third beat induction by an hour.
    A mix of boys and girls too so i seem to have a pattern!

    I put it down to a longer cycle- usually 32-33 days.
  • Amy was 4 days overdue & Zara was 6 days overdue so mine were pretty much the same xx
  • like you my first was 1week early but unfortunately second was 8days late. Think you can never really be sure. Hope you are lucky and this baby comes early or on time too x
