2nd Baby Delivery Experience

Leah

When I had my daughter 10 years ago, she came a few days early, was 6lbs 4oz, and came within a couple of hours. I had no time for a epidural. I’m curious about how my second will go and how much he will weigh. I can’t base off of my daughter’s since different father and ethnicity. Also I was born 7lbs but my mom smoked during pregnancy which can impact the weight. And my husband was born a preemie as well as his 2 brothers.

Did you find that your second experience was similar or different? Did the babies weight around the same? Was one birth easy and the other harder/longer? My sister has two sons, 4 years apart with different fathers and they weighed around the same, my sister was also a big baby (mom didn’t smoke when pregnant with her). Just wanted to know everyone’s experiences when it came to having their 2nd.
