Chances of being over due 3rd pregnancy

I was just wondering if anyone knows what the chances are of being past due with ur 3rd pregnancy. My first pregnancy I went into labor at exactly 38 weeks with my 2nd I was a week past due and had to be induced. What are my chances of this happening with my third? Or is every pregnancy different ?

Lol that is crazy. I guess babies just gain as much wait as they want to as well. Thanks ladies for the info I'm just really nervous about going pass my due date. I have 2 kids starting school around that time plus I'm already tired of being pregnant!!!

I know that they say the labour itself can be quicker with additional deliveries  but im not sure if that applies to when the woman goes into labour itself? i think its safe to say tho that no matter how predictable pregnancy is "supposed" to be it always seems to do what it wants... so ya never know!

My sister was 5 days over due with first and 2 days early with second. What's crazy is baby 1 was 7 lb 13 oz and baby 2 was 10lb 2 oz!

Every pregnancy is different. When baby is ready to come out they will come out.
