Did your second come earlier or later?

Question

My first came naturally at 37w3d. This whole second time round I've been told to expect this baby to arrive earlier and quicker. Well, I call bullsh*t! I'm 38w2d now and baby is still very stubbornly in the womb 😫
Those with second bubs now, did they come earlier or later? And if later, how much later??

Answer

I had my first at exactly 39 weeks, & my second just came this weekend at 39w1d. My labor w/ the first was 17 hrs total & my second was only 6.5 hrs! Much quicker & more intense.

Answer

My boy first came at 39wks 1 day induced 14hrs labor my second boy at 39 wks exact 2 hours of labor this my third baby girl is 37wks 3 days and im hoping she comes around anytime soon i wanted to be over it super tired 😴

Answer

For me I could be pregnant longer but the actual laboring time was less. So I say it doesn’t really matter.

Answer

My first was born at 39 weeks 5days, and my second at 38 weeks 2 days. I was in labor longer with my second than my first. I dont think it’s absolutely true that your second will come earlier and faster...

Answer

My first 4 were all born a day before or a day after their due date, so right around the same time. This little girl came 38+3, so she was definitely different than the others.

Answer

My first came at 37+5 and my second at 39+3

Answer

My first came right at 40 weeks, and I’m currently 39+5 with our second. I’ve been having so many contractions the last few days, and I don’t understand how I’m still pregnant. 😂🙈
Hopefully, today’s the day!
