Any second time moms with L&D comparisons?

Question

I know everyone, every pregnancy is different but... can any of us help it?!
Wondering how my second delivery *could* go...
My first was 40+3, irregular labor for 24 hours, kicked out of hospital, returned next day for the real thing. 8 hours of contractions with epidural (slept the whole time), 3 pushes and it was over!
Is second time around significantly faster?
Do they really come earlier?
Miracle of life is too much of a mystery....

Answer

My first came at 38 weeks and so did this little girlie. Pushed for 1.5 hours with first and about 15 minutes with this one x

Answer

My first was a 31-weeker, born after 3 days of labor. Since she was so small I really only pushed for about 5 mins or less. This time I’ve somehow made it to 38 weeks + 2 and no sign of labor 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m so anxious for things to get going...no idea what to expect but I already know I won’t be pushing for 5 mins again 🙈

Answer

My second took about an hour longer and more pushing but both were super easy and great labors. 6 hours with my first and 7 with my second.

Answer

My first was 10 days over, induced with cervadil. Dr broke my water at 5 cm at 8am, she came at 1pm, after they broke my water contractions got pretty intense pretty quick. 
With my second I went in with contractions at 40+2, but they stalled out and was sent home in the morning. Contractions started again couple hours later. Went back in the next morning, was there for about 45 mins before my water broke on it's own and I was already crowning, they hadn't even had the chance to check me cause we arrived during shift change. He was born at 834 am at 40+4. 
I hope this one goes like the second one did, minus having to walk to the birthing room with him crowning 😂
