| I've had five children. You asked when the child was born in relation to the due date.
1st: born 5 days after due date
2nd: born 6 weeks early (PROM)
3rd: born 4 days before due date
4th: born 3 days after due date (induction that I wish I hadn't agreed to)
5th: born 8 weeks early (due to pre-eclampsia)
I have really quick L&Ds. I "caught" my 5th child since I seemed to be the only person ready for her to come out! LOL
My 4th had low bgs, but I pumped and they finger fed her. She had actually lost her suck reflex during her "traumatic" birth, so about a week later she was hospitalized for dehydration, and it was actually a speech therapist at the hospital who taught me an exercise to do with her to get her to suck properly. That was a scary experience though! I don't recommend inductions at all...at least the kind that I had.
