Does a long cycle = a long gestation?

Bizzy and I were talking about this the other day, she has long cycles, and all three of her pregnancies have been long as well (42 weeks+).

I have short (26 day) cycles, and Maya was born at 38 weeks. The gremlins are an anomaly coz they were induced.

I just thought it would be interesting to see if there was any pattern to it - does the length of your cycle affect how long your pregnancy will be?

I wish! I have short cycles- 23 or 24 days, and Isla was born at 40 weeks + 5 days.

i have 28-32 day cycles and Rhi was 11 days early

I have 30 day cycles and I was induced 4 days over. Hard to tell!

I hope not - my cycles were 56 days - and I have no intention of going more than 10 days over.

Mine were exactly the same. 28 days, due date and a week early.

Mine were 35-40 days (only had 2 cycles ever so I wouldn't really go by me!) and Jack came at 40w3d. Although if my body had been prepped he would have come at 39 weeks as that's when he started trying to come out.

Mine were around 32ish days when we got pregnant with Andy. He was born 7 days late. This time I only had 5 cycles before conceiving and they ranged from 40 - 32 days so I hope this baby isn't going to be later!!

28-30 day cycles, all on time

My cycles are 31 days and all my LMP Edd have been 2weeks out to the dating scan. By dating scan gestation Lesieli 40+4 Mercedes 40+6 and Alize 38wks BUT if you go by my LMP edd date he was born 39+4. I discussed this with the MW and she still put him down  as 38wks gest as she said the dating scans at 5weeks are quite accurate. It def is something to think about tho.
