How close to your due date were you when you delivered?

Based on the due date the hospital was using (it was a typo on behalf of the lady who done my 12 week ultrasound by 10 days) I went into labour on my due date and baby was born next day at 40&1. Based on what the date should of been and had confirmed at about 5 different ultrasounds before and including my 12 week scan he was born at 38&5
 
Going off my date I was due 27 sept but my dating scan changed my due date to the 20 sept, i had my lo on 28 sept at 2.59am so based on my date I was 3 hours late but I was 8 days late according to my official date.
 
I had a natural first time labor and delivery 3 days before my due date.
 
With my first I went into labour at 40+4 and had him at 40+5 x x x
 
Believe it or not, I did it exactly on the estimated due date (they say only 5% of babies are born on their due date...). But I calculated it myself based on my last menstrual period and cycles length (ultrasound exams gave a bit different estimations).
 
My first arrived 8 days late by the NHS' count, 4 days late by my count.
 
Based on when I ovulated my due date was 5th Feb, but they dated me for 2nd Feb.
I went into labour on 5th and had her at 4 minutes past midnight, so ended up being the 6th.
 
My first was a planned c-section after a failed ecv at 39+4. My second I went into labour naturally at 39+6 and delivered via emergency c-section after a failed vbac on her due date.

I gave birth on my due date also :)
 
I was 2 days over when my waters started leaking, but had her at 4 days overdue, so not too bad. NHS due date and my due date were the same.
 
3 days over and induced 2 days over. Not looking likely to be early with this one either!
 
5 days early (about 7 days by my dates) 1st time around and 16 days early (same as my dates) 2nd time. X
