    All my mother's babies were premature. I was about 5 weeks early, which was further along than my elder two (surviving) siblings.

    I was two weeks early, but my mom had a C-section so I guess that doesn't count lol. Her blood pressure was through the roof (she's had bad heart problems in the past) and they were afraid that she'd die if they let her have a baby naturally, let alone in two weeks. So after she was at the doctor's, they rushed her to the hospital immediatly for an emergency cesarean. And there I was! lol. If I would have been in her stomach for those extra two weeks, I would have been around ten pounds when I was born. My family has really big babies. The biggest fo far was 13 pounds.

    I'm not really sure if I was early or not, I never asked my mom. All I know is that i was an accident (I mean surprise ) and that I ruined my dad and grandma's fishing trip. I was born on memorial day and they were supposed to go fishing that morning, but my dad had to cancel his plans .

    I was a late baby, lol. I was supposed to be born on September 28th, 1989 which is the same birthday as my cousin, but I was born on October 6th. So, I was about a week late.

    I don't really know. I suppose I was about on time, since I don't recall it ever being mentioned.

    My niece and I were pregnant at the same time, her baby being due the first week of May, and mine being due the last week of May. So, we were expecting them to be no more then three weeks apart, and if hers was a little late and mine was a little early ... they might even be born on the same day!

    What actually happened was her baby was born three weeks early, on April 19 and my baby was born three weeks late, June 12 ... so they are almost two months apart!

    Cool! Ju Ju Bean was a stubborn baby like me! I was born a week later than the date I was supposed to. I guess I was afraid to come out into this crazy world.

    I'm amazed at how many of you know when your due date was. I never even thought to ask my mom.

    I think I was late and even when my mom went into labor I was being a pain and didn't want to come out. LOL. I think I was due in July but was born in August. I'm glad I wasn't born in July...all the other girls in the family were born then so at least now I have that little "different" thing.

    I don't really know, although we assume late...when my mom was first pregnant with me thet told her it was just a bad case of nerves (and she has been suffering ever since ) My brother was early (due early April, born March 23; and my sister was late (due in March, born April 2). My niece was right on time Due January 11...the very day Christy went in to labor, and born around 1:30am the 12th
