For any 2nd time moms, did you feel labor was easier 2nd time around?

Question

Trying to get myself in a determined/motivated mood since baby can come at any moment and my first labor I was not able to have any epidural. This time will be the same so I’m still a bit scared for labor lol but excited to meet my baby.

Answer

Baby #1 was about 9 hours of labor, medicated. Baby #2 arrived 4 hours after contractions began... I came VERY close to delivering in the car on the 15 minute drive to the hospital. And then she arrived 20 minutes after arriving. I wasn’t even fully checked in and delivered in the clothes I arrived in 😂 we had no time for an epidural so it was in medicated and very very fast. Soooo I’m not sure which route was easier to me lol

Answer

I don't know about easier. Labor sucks either way... My second was WAY faster tho. My 1st was 6 hours and my 2nd was 3ish hours. My seconds head was in the 97th percentile so I will not tell you just because it was faster, that it was any easier lol it fucking HURT.
